We have also put together the Blue Moon Podcast Annual for the end of the year.
As 2025 comes to a close, regular contributors to the Blue Moon Podcast have put together a series of articles covering the year from a range of perspectives. What does it mean for Guardiola's legacy? Which players have had a redemption arc? Which goals could be looked back on as 'classics'?

The whole thing is available for Patreon members (or it can be bought by non-members), or each individual article is available here: https://www.patreon.com/collection/1882955

INSIDE:
Bob Toole: As he passes 1,000 matches as a manager, how does the difficult 2025 that he faced alter Pep Guardiola’s legacy as one of football’s all-time greats?

Dan Burke: I was saying Boo-nes! Nunes, Savinho and the curious phenomenon of Manchester City's boo-boys through the ages

Sean Blinkhorn: In a chaotic year that presented numerous challenges to both City and Guardiola, the emergence of a young talent has brought a calming influence -- Nico O’Reilly in 2025

Nick Clarke: While 2025 was a trophyless year for Manchester City on the pitch, off-the-pitch work by fans and community groups has never been stronger: The year for the Manchester City Fans Foodbank Support group

Niall Taylor: It’s been a generally underwhelming year, but could any of the goals City scored in 2025 be looked back on in the future as ‘classics’?

David Mooney: He may not have won any silverware in 2025, but could the year actually go down as one of Pep Guardiola’s greatest achievements?
