Emerson getting repeatedly blocked in in the right and looks off the pace for the PL. Credit to Burnley as they are really pressing us.
Burnley have been their usual selves but I’m pleased we’ve stood up physically. Romero in particular but one or two moments from Sess too, which is important to see from him. Last few minutes we’ve managed to get a bit more creative influence in the game with Kulu on the turn once or twice. Encouraging and maybe we’re settling a bit.
I'm sure the various hacks trying to invent a rift between Conte and Hojbjerg all week have their excuses ready for seeing him in the starting xi...
We’re doing good things but too slowly. Emerson there a case in point. Fizz the ball in, in these conditions. Instead he pauses and Brownhill plugs the gap to Son.
You can not counter attack against Burnley...it's why we've only had 1 attempt one none on target in 30 minutes. At least I can fall back on my happy Etihad Stadium moments.
