==Background==
{{See also|2015 Mumbai City FC season}}

After the end of the [[2014 Indian Super League season|2014 ISL season]], Mumbai City parted ways with their inaugural season head coach, [[Peter Reid]]. Soon after, [[Nicolas Anelka]], the club's marquee from 2014, was named as the player-head coach for the [[2015 Indian Super League season|2015 season]].<ref>{{cite news|title=Nicolas Anelka named Mumbai City player-manager|url=https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/33381031|accessdate=30 April 2016|publisher=BBC Sport|date=3 July 2015}}</ref> The season began for Mumbai City with a 3–1 loss to their Maharashtra rivals, [[FC Pune City|Pune City]] on 5 October.<ref>{{cite web|title=Pune City 3-1 Mumbai City 2015|url=https://int.soccerway.com/matches/2015/10/05/india/indian-super-league/pune-city/mumbai-city/2037327/|website=Soccerway}}</ref> The team ended the season with only four wins through fourteen matches, three of which came in a row at the end of October. This resulted in Mumbai City finishing the season in sixth place in the standings, missing out on the finals by six points.<ref>{{cite news|title=ISL 2015 Table & Results|url=http://www.india.com/whatever/isl-2015-table-results-points-table-and-team-standings-of-hero-indian-super-league-football-tournament-598065/|accessdate=30 April 2016|work=India.com|date=6 December 2015}}</ref>
