Wasn't able to see the match, so won't comment on it.
On the OS, though, saw the final scenes after full time. Again, as with the other day, what strikes me is the absence of hysteria. No silly Klopp-like gurning, all of them joining hands as if they were at a bloody boy scouts jamboree and running over to the Kop. No idiot dancing antics from Arteta, and frantic celebrations by Arsenal players as if they had actually, at this point, won a trophy. No, just a wander over to the supporters, smiles and a few hugs between the players as if they've had a good work-out on the training pitch, Pep looking satisfied at a job well done. Rodri wasn't even smiling particularly as he clapped our away fans. Just looking fierce.
The contrast could not be more stark. These guys know. They just know.
 
Excellent all round tonight. Foden and Walker had stand out performances but we they were all excellent. Kev’s brilliant finish set us on our way, settled us down and we just bossed it from then. The key was our press, very good tonight. Well done City and looks like we’re hungry for the 4th
 
Very dominant performance tonight, especially in the first half when Brighton could n't get near us. Another masterclass from Phil who has to be a shoein for the PL Player of the season.

Let's hope Spurs can get a result on Sunday.
 
On a side note, that was a nice embrace between Barco and Pep. Pep clearly pleased with him despite the error at the back. He has done well, and he is a top-talent. One to watch for the future.
