Ange is one of the few top managers that doesn't talk rubbish. He's straight up honest, intelligent and actually enlightening to listen to. Tactically adept.
They'll be alright (well they are now anyway, huge improvement on the last few years) when they get their first team players back.

Speaking of bad refereeing... 0:48
It's an automatic yellow card for a pull back, we all know that.
So the ref has cheated by not giving him a blatent 2nd yellow so he can stay on.
The same as pawson in the derby.
It's cheating nothing more nothing less.
They are a disgrace.
Oh, same referee that didn't send Konate off then? Absurd they all seem to referee by different standards.

Has the ref said anything? Like why he stopped play?
It’s infuriating that they never have to explain!

I can see why he might have, not that he necessarily made the right decision, but when he called it back there was Grealish level with three defenders that looked to have him contained (and they still might have) and therefore no advantage (I'd have waited longer to see what might have happened too) until he broke through where it made it the wrong call. Not sure if the linesman flagged anything.
It's pretty fine margins, and it'll be all about the ref as players and managers seem to take no responsibility now. Just seconds earlier Tottenham should have scored too, so it could quite easily have been 3-4 and none of this discussion would be happening. But it's city so.... Guardiola was pretty magnanimous after, but Haaland was acting like the petulant shit he is, after he missed a near certain goal, perhaps wanting the focus deflected off him I assume.

Missed the first 20 mins and missed 2 goals, missed the last 10 and not only missed another 2 goals but a hugely controversial moment

Bit of a test for Arsenal today away to Luton. You don't always fancy them in away games like this, as sometimes they don't have the fight for it.
Would convince me a little more they could win the whole thing if they could get through the game comfortably.

Could do with Burnley getting knocked back down to Earth here, which I think they will.

Hwanggggggggg 1-0
Burnley unlucky not to score before but anytime Wolves have looked like turning it up, Burnley have looked vulnerable.

Lovely goal from Martinelli. Arse in cruise control so far.
