Man City loanee reacts after scoring first goal of the season as Bukayo Saka lauds ex-Blues duo

Here are your Manchester City evening headlines on Tuesday, December 27.

Tommy Doyle reacts after scoring first Sheffield United goal

Manchester City loanee Tommy Doyle has spoken of his delight after scoring his first goal for Sheffield United in the Championship side's victory over Coventry City.

The 21-year-old, who is spending the season on loan at Bramall Lane from City, has made 16 appearances for the Blades so far this season. He scored his first goal of the campaign just one minute after coming off the bench in the 3-1 Boxing Day win over Mark Robins' side.

Saka explains how Jesus and Zinchenko are inspiring Arsenal

Arsenal star Bukayo Saka has detailed how former Manchester City men Gabriel Jesus and Oleksandr Zinchenko have brought belief to the dressing room after their victory over West Ham.

The Hammers looked as though they may pull off an upset on Boxing Day in North London when Said Benrahma's penalty gave David Moyes' team the lead at the break. However, Arsenal did well to fight back and extend their lead at the top of the Premier League.

City will have to wait until Wednesday and a trip to Leeds in order to bring their rivals back within five points. Speaking after the impressive fightback, England and Arsenal's key man Saka praised two ex-Blues for their ability to overturn the deficit and for giving them that winning edge this campaign.
