EXCLUSIVE Inside Manchester City's Club World Cup failure: How saunas, crosswords and Rayan Cherki's French rap turned into an Al Hilal nightmare - and what happens now
The beach yoga on Florida 's east coast wouldn't have felt quite so tranquil the morning after Al Hilal, as Manchester City prepared to board their two-floor 153-seat Atlas private charter back home a week earlier than anybody expected.
At least they can't complain about a lack of rest next season now. The players are not due back until July 28, a four-week break and 18 days before the Premier League begins thanks to the early Club World Cup elimination. That will creep up quickly and they'll need some time to forget about what happened here in Orlando.
