They should charge Taylor for failure to properly referee a football match.

and also charge him for the games he has failed to do it in the past too.

Watching the highlights again didn't notice the great cross from Zinchenko came off Nketiah's shoulder. Other chance he had was worse, he saw it all the way and Akanji completely left him drawn away by another player. Jesus scored a fair few for us with his head, think he'd have put at least one of those away.

On third goal Jorginho basically dropped into back line to mark Haarland, Partey would have been in position to confront Gundogan. Zinchenko maybe should have reacted faster to De Bruyne as should know what he's about.

Barcelona home in Guardiola's first season and second leg against PSG were rare times we played on the back foot but Bernardo left back was a strange choice if we intended to have little possession. Arsenal could have taken more advantage if Tomiyasu had given it faster to Saka to drive on the outside.

Gabby is a terrible header of the ball.

They played such an active man to man system against us, it was the needed out ball. Thankfully, Haaland is up there to scrap for it, and allow us to move up the field.

Normal service will be resumed.

This.

Arsenal should have lost 3-0
Never a pen as shown by not 1 Arsenal
Player appealing for it

That is a problem with Akanji. He does get drawn our of position. Dias already had that player covered.

We were well up for that match and it showed. Need to show the same passion and desire for each and every game until the end of the season and we'll lift it again no problem. It's up to us to stick two fingers up at everyone. Come on City, let's do this!

Perhaps it's been commented on before now, but why was Gabriel only given a yellow for the foul on Haaland. Identical to the Cancelo Fulham incident, which everyone said was a cast iron red! We really are being reffed differently this season.

We didn’t intend to have so little possession. I just think Arsenal were able to play with more control than us, in general. The difference was we were actually quite efficient in pouncing on their errors, whereas ours went unpunished. I think in general play, build up/control etc they were better than us on average over the full 90 mins. But where we were better than them was in both boxes and that makes a huge difference.

"Arsenal's players surrounding the match official during the 56th minute, and Manchester City's doing so during the 42nd and 64th minutes."

Files, files, fines... Good old Premier League fairness
