Pablo Zabaleta and Álvaro Negredo hold the League Cup trophy after City's victory in the Capital One Cup final.

City became the fastest club in Premier League history to score 100 competitive goals in all competitions and the first to complete this feat before the end of January.[2] They went on to score 156 goals in all competitions, breaking the previous record of 143 goals set by Manchester United in 1956–57.[3] City's 100th Premier League goal of the season was scored in the 4–0 victory over Aston Villa on 7 May 2014. This was the first time the Blues had scored more than 100 league goals in the English top division in a single season since 1957–58.[4] Coincidentally, their 100th goal was notable for another reason, as it became the first goal in all of English league football to be decided via the "Hawk-Eye" system, which had been rolled out for use in English football at the start of the season.[5]

The final tally of 102 league goals was at the time the second-highest Premier League season total and one goal short of Chelsea's 2009–10 record.[6] This was also the first Premier League season where a team had three individual players each score more than 15 goals, with City accomplishing the feat courtesy of Yaya Touré, Sergio Agüero and Edin Džeko.[7]

The 2013–14 season marked the first time City advanced to the round of 16 of the UEFA Champions League. There, the Blues were defeated by Barcelona 4–1 on aggregate.[8][9] City also recorded their first silverware of the Manuel Pellegrini era on 2 March 2014, when they lifted the Football League Cup.[10] It was the club's first triumph in the competition since 1976.[11]

On 11 May 2014, City won the Premier League for the second time in three seasons following a 2–0 win over West Ham United.[12] It was the first time that Manchester City had won two trophies in a season since 1969–70, when they won the League Cup and the Cup Winners' Cup.

Kit information edit

The club signed a new deal with the American manufacturer Nike, who would supply their kits for the next six years (until 2019).

  • Home: The new home kit featured a classical design with a round crew neck and sleeve cuffs, trimmed in white and navy. The shorts were white with sky blue trimmings, while the socks were white for the first time since 2009.
  • Away: The away kit featured a black and charcoal half design, embellished with golden sponsor logos. The shorts and socks were black.
  • Third: The third kit was predominantly white with a single sky blue and navy stripe on the right hand side. The shorts and socks were navy with sky blue accents.
  • Keeper: There were four goalkeeper kits used throughout the season. They were based on Nike's premium goalkeeper template, which featured two tones of the same colour. The first choice kit was in two tones of green, whilst the alternatives were purple, yellow and black respectively.
