I don't understand that comment. When you have Kane up top, with Alli, Eriksen and Son behind him running around and dragging the centre backs out of position, surely the deepest midfielders are responsible? I called it ball watching because that is my perception of what he was doing. First he...

I realise that is the case. Still, given the conspiracy theories posted here about the media vendetta against Man City, I think it is in keeping with the general mood to treat a missed chance like JFK's assassination!

Just like a few teams want to get Bravo on the ball... I didn't think the first mistake was that much of a howler. Pat Nevin has already explained that those types of mistakes are expected given Lloris' style, and Spurs have a far better defence than any team other than Chelsea. Second mistake...

There could be no complaints if it were given, but similarly complaints that it was not given are unreasonable. If you get down to millimetres nobody can even tell. At a few centimetres it is getting a bit pedantic. It was a tough call and crying about a decision like that is pointless. Offside...

You think Aguero should pass it where Sane is pointing? If he does that I feel he sends Sane out wide and Walker can mark KDB so if Sane isn't clear of Alderweireld it becomes a 2 vs 2 from a 3 vs 2 situation. Also, there isn't a lot of space for Aguero to pass it past Alderweireld without the...

Here is one but it is cropped so you can't see as well, just how much space and time Sane had to make his decision. It's at 0:49.

Kane was mildly offside. A few centimetres. Would have been a pretty harsh cal o give offside it was so close.

I understand it can be difficult, but in that case, I felt Sane could see all of the players and knew he was furthest left. he knew his choice of run would definitely cut into KDB. It was as if he hadn't registered that it was 2 versus 3. No doubt his decision making will improve but I thought...

I think it is very fair to criticise decision making like this. Sane is an expensive, well paid player, and although I had a better view than he did, i still think the decision was unambiguous because I think he could see what to do from where he was. I took into consideration the view of the...

I thought Otamendi was very poor for Son's goal. Noting that Otamendi was being forced to try cover for defensive errors by the midfield (especially Toure), essentially having to mark Kane and Son. Nevertheless, I thought Otamendi's decision to appeal for offside against Kane, while he was still...

I thought Toure was pretty shocking for Son's goal. Loafing about ball watching while Eriksen, Alli and Son were dragging the defenders out of position. He went from ball watching Dembele who had 3 other players on him, while Toure should have been marking Eriksen. Then he began to ball watch...

I was wondering if people could analyse the build up prior to Sane's header chance against Spurs? I think it is the second clip discussed on MOTD. KDB flicks a header on to Aguero and City have 3 versus 2 Spurs defenders, with Sane being the third Man City player. I'm wondering if anyone sees...
