Manchester City FC - Team Centre

This place is the heartbeat of manchester. I love it all.

Absolute fan of this football, thanks Manel & Pep

Grandson had the bestest of times. MCFC OK!

Fabulous tour of City Football Academy and The Etihad. Tour guides knowledable and entertaining. Facilities seen absolutely incredible. Highly recommended.

A good day the only thing that wasn't so good was the weather. My great grandchildren loved it and got involved with everything. Well done Manchester City!!

Amazing!! Everyone who actually trains here most feel very very lucky and proud of it. I wish I could be there playing or at least training. I could literally just take care of the place(cleaning, gardening, etc.) for free. I am amazed with this, we don't have something similar in my country. I crossed the world for this and it worth it!!*-*

Took grandkids to the city kids funzone. What a great event, the kids loved it and it was free!. Whatever criticism is thrown at man city and their financial influence in football, they give so much back to the community. Have to say the organsing staff were fantastic nothing was too much trouble. It's been a long time since I've seen so many kids having a real happy enjoyable fun time. Keep it up Manchester City FC

Manchester City entered the Football League in 1899, and won their first major honor with the FA Cup in 1904. It had its first major period of success in the late 1960s, winning the League, FA Cup and League Cup under the management of Joe Mercer and Malcolm Allison. After losing the 1981 FA Cup Final, the club went through a period of decline, which eventually saw them relegated as far down as third tier of English football by the end of the 1997–98 season. They since regained promotion to the top tier in 2001–02 and have remained a fixture in the Premier League since 2002–03. In 2008, Manchester City was purchased by Abu Dhabi United Group for £210 million and received considerable financial investment.

Amazing and huge installations, you have cafeteria and parking, as well as a large number of training camps outside and one inside.

Amazing that this complex was raised from an old brown field site, that had been a scar on the inner city for years. Apart from the footie fan arguments over how it was funded, ask the local residents how they feel. It has given what is a really deprived part of Manchester a real lift and lifts the whole locality.
