Great 1st half from Silva, taking the ball from the back 4 and spreading it around. Looks good. Couple of great saves from Ederson after mistakes from City. Foden should have scored with that chance. We were looking very comfortable until the last 10 minutes when our errors allowed them back in.
 
Midfield getting bypassed like against Leicester. Bernardo started well but faded. Need more if a wall as we are constantly caught by the counter.

Lucky to be 1 up.
Pep just not reacting for me.

Get Mahrez off & sure up the midfield with fern. We are winning so why the hell are we rushing & chasing as if we are loosing.

Their keeper made some good saves too.
Don't know about lucky.
 
Mahrez has made good plays but he’s so bad at defending from the front and useless when asked to win the ball anywhere in anything approaching a 50/50. He’s been one of our better players today but he needs to be to make up for what he can’t do. Pretty much that whole right side is a bunch of players with great strengths but also great weaknesses

Some nice stuff but like all season we don't look in control and could concede at anytime.

Cancelo confuses me. Obviously a good player in there but he decision making is wank.

I think he looked far better on the left. Looks short on confidence and the game is moving too quickly for him.
 
What did the commentator say about our net spend something like we are only 8th but all the articles I find has us much higher
 
Good half, mixed it up to confuse arteta tactic, city on top mainly and went in with a deserved lead.

Bonus I am watching it on south africa tv channel so got tony adams and owen hargreaves giving grown up analysis not the sky claptrap
 
Played well I thought on the whole but Arsenal still look like scoring at some point so vital we take another of the chances. Aguero made a big difference up front. Walker a bit sloppy at times with his passing.
 
Fancy Sergio to put this to bed second half, lot of fanny flapping on ere, after Pep & Arteta’s little 20 minute game of chess we took charge, then Arsenal came back into it, they are a good side, are people expecting them to rollover? This isn’t Arsene’s lot, we will need a second goal to win this though
