The superstars of Manchester City have decided to mark the Chinese new year in bizarre fashion... by taking each other on in a series of rooster races!
Eight of City's big names paired off to do battle, maintaining their usual competitive edge in the somewhat surreal task of racing their respective male chickens over the finish lines in the fastest time possible.
With 2017 in the Chinese calendar standing as the year of the fire rooster, City stars Vincent Kompany, Bacary Sagna, Yaya Toure, Leroy Sane, Pablo Zabaleta, Fernandino, Angus Gunn and Pablo Maffeo picked their sides and selected an animal.
