Set pieces have been awful from Trippier, let Tonali or Gordon take them

Daft from Burn to get a yellow

Never a pen

Joelinton gets a yellow for that and Semedo has nowt so far, lol

All from Longstaff giving the ball away

Longstaff and his poor touch putting us in trouble

Semedo should be on a yellow

Class from Gordon, unlucky

Spurs struggling with end product, although I like Odobert, he isn't helping solve that

Spurs poor at set pieces, Arsenal mint at them, seemed inevitable

I think he's unlucky because I think his intent is simply for the ball but the way he goes to tackle the ball it runs the risk of slipping off I'm fine with it being a yellow, definitely not a red

Yellow was the correct decision for that

Been an entertaining 0-0 so far

Poor from Martinelli that, big chance

Terrible defending

Nkunku wins it for Chelsea

Brentford have a decent record at the Etihad don't they? Their style causes City problems

You've massively misrepresented the position Mitchell said they spoke every day, Howe even confirmed they spoke regularly but that since the window they hadn't spoke, which he further explained is normal since they have very different roles at this moment

Exactly Plus he confirmed what Mitchell said about them talking regularly but that was special circumstances due to the transfer window I expect them to talk more regularly as we approach the January window I'm just glad football is back, will get away from this off the pitch nonsense

I'd love to blame it on that, I just think we have some journalists who love to stir things, either because they get a kick out of it or they do it to drive clicks The Hope headline about Howe and Mitchell not talking is so sensationalist, anyone with half a brain watching the actual press conference won't have taken his comments that way

Still makes me angry Thought Martinez and Dave Whelan were pricks ever since

Might have second thoughts the way some have overanalysed the Mitchell interview

They wanted Mitchell back in March/April time to work under Ashworth didn't they? So clearly they rate him and his opinion must hold some weight when it comes to recruitment

Dan Ashworth being upset is an absolute irrelevance

I didn't think he said anything that would piss PIF off Though I have found it interesting how the same interview everyone has read has resulted in so such an extreme range of responses You've now gotten people taking a dislike to him and others have elevated him because he's said spoken about things they like For me I probably sit in the middle, good to hear from someone other than Howe, not sure the explanation as to why we didn't sign someone was clear enough but ultimately I'm not too concerned about that. Hopefully the next summer window is more productive, that is where we will find out if the club have actually corrected what went wrong in this window
