I don't think anyone in their right mind would disagree that they are the best team in the world, but we should also concede they played a weakened/rotated squad. That said, their second 11 is better than some EPL teams starting 11.

Would love to see Tripps at LB once in a while with Tino at RB. Tino at RW when needed also.

Pep complimentary to Newcastle.

Wonder if no Haaland is because Pep probably was 100% OK getting out of the League Cup schedule. City will be making deep runs in both remaining competitions plus the league itself.

I wonder if Eddie might be tempted to get Tino at RW once in while.

Wow, didn't see this coming with the lineup fielded.

Schar coming on to get a quick head injury for shithousing purposes.

That press!

Tino has some skills.

Good job in the end Sandro. Anderson on.

Yikes.

That sequence! Played it out of the box in a dangerous spot.

Was a great play by Tino.

He started the goal with a great pass.

Not a bad delivery by Targett.

Good by Gordon also.

Great pressing!

Midfield play so much improved this half.

Foden on.

Looks much better higher up the pitch. Howe will have made note of outcome of his changes.

Tonali, good hustle to get back.

Nice ball Tonali.

Only if he followed it up with a face stomp.

Kick in ole shins.

Didn't look that bad for Isak. Gordon up top now.
