Still don't see why City needed Grealish when they have Mendy as their obvious weak link. The guy couldn't even get into bottom half teams. That £100 million could have been better spent.

Thought Spurs would tire earlier on but they had an extra gear which City didn't until the last 10 minutes. Perhaps Guardiola wants to peak late in the season where play-off competitions matter more? Nevertheless the difference between physical condition of these teams was pretty huge.

Also mistake by Pep to sub Sterling out instead of Torres. The latter was just nowhere to be seen in this game.

As much as I though Son's strike was magnificent my MotM is Lucas Moura. Very energetic, didn't put a foot wrong where he could, defended well. His performances in the Spurs shirt have been far better than what I remember in PSG.

Spot on. Will be interesting to see if Spurs can keep this intensity for the rest of the season.

Great performance from Spurs. Nuno reminds me of Conte a bit. Wonder what his H2H record against Pep is like. I think his Wolves beat City a few times.

Slow and lackadaisical performance from City. Mendy has no business starting ever again. It was obvious injuries have ruined him since like late 2019. Rest of the team was shit too. I’m sure they’ll win the PL if they sign Kane. If they don’t it’s going to be a close PL title race IMO.

Bring B.Silva back ffs, Ferran Torres can be the sub, glad De Bruyne featured, at least he'll start next game for sure? Thought he was out injured still.

The defense still sucks obviously Razz

Ake doesnt look at all convincing. Makes u wonder how Man C despite all the money in the world still has Zinchenko and a past it Mendy for LB lol...

meh won't read too much into... City had a slow start last season too. Having said that i don't think they can copy last season's performances and results without a legit striker this time. Playing Ferran 'mid' Torres as a false 9 is as low as it goes.

What's Souness' beef with Pogba? He can't even bring himself to say anything positive about him after a starring role in Utd's big win.

Don't hear him talking negatively about Kane who's gone mia like he did when Pogba wanted to leave.

SS need to sack this racist

A bit worried about Arsenal playing Chelsea and City in their next two. What are the major changes will we see in their line up compared to against Brentford?

by El Gunner Mon Aug 16, 2021 12:01 am

why worry? hopefully the results will get rid of Arteta

There was a really good discussion on this on my Twitter feed.

The double standards from guys like Souness when it comes to Pogba and Kane/Grealish are ridiculous. Micah Richards called it out as well.

Arsenal have outspent City, Chelsea, United, Liverpool and Spurs this season.

Top 4 should be a given now. No excuses for Farteta :coffee:

keep confusing Martial for Ashley Young ffs

even though I'm pretty sure in 2021 Young is more reliable in front of goal

by halamadrid2 Sun Aug 22, 2021 2:30 pm

Nicely worked goal by Southampton

Poor turnover by Fernandes

by Firenze Sun Aug 22, 2021 2:32 pm
