Bernardo exit talks heat up, Foden shines in Palace rout

Bernardo Silva could be heading to Galatasaray

The Turkish club have made the best offer for Bernardo and he's preparing to leave this summer (4). Juventus and Barcelona are also lurking, but Galatasaray have put the most serious bid on the table. After eight trophy-laden years, it looks like the end of the road for one of the most technically gifted players to ever pull on the shirt.

Foden runs the show in 3–0 Palace win

Phil Foden created five chances in the first half alone as City strolled past Crystal Palace 3–0 (2) (3). Pep called him a 'unique' talent after full-time (5). Savinho was electric on the other flank, and the title race stays alive for another week. Arsenal's lead at the top has been cut (2).

Why Nico Gonzalez missed out

Pep confirmed the midfielder's absence was down to a fitness issue, nothing more serious (1). He called Gonzalez 'fantastic' and you'd expect him back for the next one.

All eyes on Wembley

City are set to 'take a break' from the Arsenal title battle and throw everything at the FA Cup semi-final against Chelsea (9). The plan: go full strength at Wembley, deal with the league after.

Fan reactions

The Etihad faithful are buzzing. Foden's first-half five-chance blitz has fans calling it the assist performance of the season, while others are already getting emotional about Bernardo potentially playing his final home game. Read the full threads here and here.
