Three of the four newcomers were launched into the Manchester City first team by Pep Guardiola against Newcastle, and after the game, there was only one guy being talked about.

The fans at the "Etihad" enjoyed themselves, that was the feeling of a Saturday afternoon given to them by Omar Marmuš, who practically single-handedly defeated one of the most unpleasant teams on the Island in the first half.

City won 4:0, and the Egyptian striker scored a hat-trick in just 15 minutes, from the 19th to the 33rd.

The former Eintracht Frankfurt player (paid 75 million euros in January) brought an advantage to the "citizens" with a fantastic lob shot when goalkeeper Ederson Moraes used it in his own style, and then he scored goals and made assists Ilkaya Gindogan i Savinja.

Marmuš played only seven minutes in the loss to Real Madrid (3:2) on Tuesday, and it seems that the game against Newcastle "bought" him a place in the starting lineup in the second leg to be played in Madrid on Wednesday.

He enrolled in the end and young James McCatty.

City thus moved within three points of third-placed Nottingham Forest, who lost to Fulham 2:1, while Aston Villa disappointed - they only drew at home against Ipswich (1:1) despite having a player more for over 50 minutes.
