City could set new benchmark with potential seventh consecutive league victory

A win against Ipswich Town on Saturday would see Mazzola break new ground, becoming the first Manchester City manager to claim victory in his first seven Premier League matches. No manager in the club’s history has achieved such a streak; the closest was Joe Mercer in 1965, who remained unbeaten in his first seven games but recorded three wins and four draws. Securing a seventh straight win would cement Mazzola’s place in City folklore and set a fresh standard for future appointments.
