IMHO that is the Citeh effect. You are very unlikely to do them on GD, so pts are your only option. Which means the win becomes more important than the performance.
Evan Ferguson on for Brighton. Remember when he was the league's golden boy being hailed as the "next Harry Kane"? Hasn't scored for them in almost a year. Still plenty young enough to turn it around though.
Want to feel old? Paul Hinshelwood ex-Palace, is Jack Hinshelwood GRANDFATHER!! (And yes, Martin H is his uncle!)
They had two players just run into Ederson and block him off, which is what they always do now. They rely on the ref not giving a foul and VAR not overruling him.
Set-piece goals, red cards and Legohead having a meltdown like a four-year-old. Standard. I wonder if it's for the foul or kicking the ball away?
Guardiola should be looking at himself for this scoreline, despite Michael Oliver's inadequacies. Kovacic is a good player but he's not a like-for-like change with Rodri. Lost control of the midfield and let them back in it.
