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.

    I don’t see the point of the comparisons in the comments.

    We’re obviously strong defensively this season, but it’s not like it we’re in a position to brag considering our record v City after beating them in one match at home.

    “This game is boring” - yeah, so was ours against City.

    Spurs have the best record against City and they’ve got a significant chunk of their starting XI out - it’s the equivalent of Rice, Saliba, Gabriel, Tomi, Ode & then some - at the same time including mid-serious injuries. Both times played poorly too and City weren’t at their peak. Under those circumstances (consider if we were in that position), 3 goals against City & limiting them to just 2 (& zero for Halaand) and drawing overall for a point at the start of a rebuild is a solid effort.

    Anyway, that’s the second time this season that Simon Hooper has made a howler of a ref decision against the team playing Spurs.
