Watching City cut through Tottenham(and most teams to be fair) with almost every attack makes our performance against them at the Emirates that much more special.

    This game is so boring.

    Previous city vs spurs games were exciting when they used to sit back and no give an inch to city. But they are so open, their midfield lines are so high to defense, it’s scary. It’s like last season city cut us open at etihad.

    City setup narrow af against us, I’m really not sure how they expected to break us down like that but it wasn’t that great a defensive performance. The numbers are always gonna be low when the match is so slow and cagey.

    I appreciate our defensive efforts this season but to be fair, Spurs have almost half of the starting 11 out due to injuries. 3 of them being in the back. Like. You can’t expect the bench to hold up City.

    We went punch for punch (block for block technically) with City and came out on top. And it was the first time I felt our teams were even.

    But de Bruyne coming back will free City so we have to be ready to win every remaining game.

    City are the strongest home team on planet earth. Not fair to compare them at home vs away as they were vs us

    Everyone in the league has basically forgotten that we beat city, wolves are brought up every time but not us

    Tbf the way they play and especially the players they got in CB today doesn’t help haha

    I’m still hoping they somehow someway steal a point or more today

    Edit: Ange is genuinely cooking can’t lie.

    With that team and those CBs playing like that? Scoring twice? Mad.

    Definitely lucky they didn’t concede more but they play silky stuff ngl.

    They’ll mess up as always ofc but hopefully they don’t lose in these last few minutes…

    Edit 2: lol Bissouma had a stinker tonight. “Better than Rice” my ass

    Edit 3: nicely done chickens. Nicely done.
