XI | Ederson, Walker, Dias, Laporte, Bernardo, Rodrigo, De Bruyne, Gundogan (C), Foden, Grealish, Haaland
SUBS | Ortega Moreno, Phillips, Ake, Alvarez, Gomez, Akanji, Mahrez, Palmer, Lewis
Little Phil and Ayme are back in for Nathan and Riyad
Good to see Phil starting. Silva left back again.
C'mon City
Decent half. Difficult to play against such a defensive side but I thought we would break them down eventually. Nice strike from Bernard but I thought the keeper should have done better there as it was so central to the goal. Phil and Jack doing well but another ref that doesn't ref fouls.
That was the real City, the Champions.
Just didn't get the lucky break in their box we needed before the lovely Bernardo strike.
C'mon City let us get more goals and keep Arsenal under pressure.
Playing well, just need another
Profligate in front of goal and sucker punched.
Inconsistency bites again. It'll be our downfall this season.
I was calling their goal from 70 minutes. We wasted chances after chance to seal the win.
Why did they have five subs and fresh legs for the Kay 20 minutes and we had no subs and tired legs until it was too late.
Technical 5 points behind Arsenal.

Some poor game management from Pep. Not the first time either this season
We just didn't finish them off despite having more than enough chances and then some. Their goal was offside.

How was it offside. It looked offside to me but when the lines were drawn one of our defenders was far more forward than it appeared in real time and slow mo. It shocked me that VAR was determining he played Woods well onside. I want to see it again.
Was off side their goal then the lines changed and angles.
should have been 4 or 5 but we move on
Watched the Nottingham Forest goal and it was indeed onside. Ruben Dias in an attempt to cut out the cross played Woods onside.
It looked offside to me the first time I saw it and I saw it several times and still thought the same. I'm not watching it again. It has gone now.
Kyle's interview has cheered me up a bit. No bollocks or excuses. Nice one. It gives me some hope that we still have the right stuff in the dressing room.
The rags are right in the mix now so going to be interesting
Arsenal was really lucky to get all three points, but they got it, they will drop more so it's up to us to keep the pressure on which will suit Pep
Gone right off Arteta now the obnoxious wee prick
If we had taken another of any of our multiple chances yesterday we would be buzzing today that Champions City are back. So I'm still very hopeful going forward.
Action man saying most neutrals would rather Arsenal win the league than City! I have a lot of sympathy for Zinchenko but what a time to find his shooting boots FFS!
