this article has nothing to do with spurs, and/or Pochettino managing his socks off through a lack of player investment (whether through his own inaction, or managments inability to pull the trigger) and keeping us on the edge of the title race.
But I did love these two paragraphs
So, credit to City then for showing laudable gumption under pressure, finding a second goal of exquisite quality just as things were threatening to go awry before half-time and then dominating the second half so completely Arsenal did not muster a shot. But on the other hand: lads, it’s Arsenal.
It’s four years since the Coquelin Peculiarity, that still inexplicable afternoon when Arsenal came to the Etihad with a bodged-together midfield, played an unfamiliar containing game and won 2-0. This was their 19th away game since against one of the Big Six. They have won one of those games. Imagine overthinking a home match against Arsenal.
