Christ. Hard work out of what should have been easy again.

Arsenal (A) mode required

Or Rayan Cherki of all the players….

Everyone has permission to take a yellow for shithousery

Chuck all the defensive lads on

Starting to wonder whether Premier League refs have actually been trained to use semi-automated offsides…

Just bonkers

Boooo

Joško can’t get a break

All attack, no defence Both sides pitting on a shooting exhibition

Just scoring rude goals on them now

Lovely stuff!

Still, probably better to concede just before the break than just after it, in terms of the whole not losing our heads thing.

Bit silly, that

PHILIP FODEN IS THE GUY

Both maddeningly frustrating and almost genius in one go by Reijnders...

Another tough battle for Erling… Would hate to be perceived as a “big player” in English football

Score that…

“Make up for your nonsense at the weekend” XI

Made that way more difficult than it needed to be…. What’s going on with our half-time breaks? Taking whatever the opposite of PEDs is? Anyway, result.

Decent half. Probably should have had a third.

#ManCity are giving away hospitality packages for free today to club staff as it hasn’t sold, we understand. North Stand evictees at the Etihad Stadium have been told they have to move as there is a ‘waiting list’ for hospitality. It has NOT gone down well among supporters.

This guy’s genuinely lost the fans to a surprising degree. Winger still a huge issue for us.

That was pretty dire, and I’m freezing. What an evening.

A half perhaps best summed up by the response Marmoush got from a decent chunk of the crowd when he tried to gee it up…

Well, it’s definitely not the first XI…

That is… rotation!

Everton went down a man that early and still won at Old Trafford? Guess the Man United aren’t back yet!

We lost to this Spurs team... I know we often do, but *this* Spurs team.

Ah well. Shooting drills for the attackers this week, then.

Yellow card for Bobb genuinely made me laugh

Genuinely, just start trying to score olímpicos from every corner. Can't go any worse than our current set pieces.

Saw that shot from Savinho coming as soon as the ball went out to him

González is very Dias on the ball, and I'm afraid that's not a compliment

Poor

Ruben Dias of all people! Still not sure if that counts as a goal from a corner...

If you're going to play such a back-and-forth match, you've got to score some of yours because you can bet on the opposition scoring some of theirs.

They just not booking Tonali in case he's put a tonne on it?

Woltemade finding his way free of Dias and Gvardiol pretty often

Rusty Creating the chances, giving a few away Non-pen shout was just odd, ref's forgotten his yellow cards

That has to go on target

What's Josko even complaining about there?

Lucky...

Pen every day of the week, surely

International break doesn't seem to have been fantastic for Nico G...

Big save from Gigi

Sky Sports unable to distinguish between our two Rayans, apparently

Immaculate vibes at Eastlands Doku incredible Full-backs more than held their own Nico G and Bernie tenacious as anything

Some half that - I’m exhausted
