This is almost one of those situations where City’s walking pace, “we want to score the perfect goal” style of football kind of works against them. Arse will be mostly fine keeping everything in front of them and moving so slowly. 

This is where De Bruyne is badly missed.

City don’t really have any attacker on the pitch that’s going to be super dangerous shooting from outside the box. Just Kyle Walker trying to pile drive it. All their attackers are the sort that like arriving late for tap ins or cutbacks.

Plays right into Arse’s hands. Again, City desperately miss KDB. Or Mahrez in previous seasons.

It is indeed impressive from Arse to be this solid with 10 but for me it’s equally as pathetic from City. They’re probably the most intelligent attacking team since the prime Messi/Iniesta/Xavi Barca team but somehow look completely clueless here.

Arse literally couldn’t have asked for a better game plan from City coming out of half time. They can just camp in their box moving side to side over and over again. This sort of situation has rendered Haaland useless, too.

They haven't lost at home since November 2022...well....woops

They have their moments and had them last season. They weren't perfect all the way through and only just came out on top.
