Standing Alone by Sam Lee

This is the story of Manchester City's return to the top of English football as well as their journey to their first ever Champions League final as Pep Guardiola's team battle to secure their place in history. Throughout this historic season of breath-taking football, they were followed by their equivalent from the world of sports writing: a team of elite talents, assembled by The Athletic to leave all competition trailing in their wake. The result is an alchemical blend of inside access and expert analysis; great ideas and beautiful writing. City's triumph is relived in real time, in 360 degrees. Articles include profiles of each of City's title winners by their former youth team coaches; on-the-road features from the hometowns of some of their international superstars, brilliant tactics board breakdowns of key moments in the season; and exclusive interviews with players, coaches and backroom staff.

Sam Lee is the superbly-connected reporter recruited to cover City week-to-week; Oliver Kay is an award-winning feature writer poached from The Times; and Daniel Taylor has been named Football Journalist of the Year for the last four years and was previously the chief football writer for The Guardian and The Observer.
