"Despite the fact that City went ahead late in the first half, the mighty Spurs found their form in the second, and with some deft midfield interplay and creative attacking play, they were a different class to City, whose bubble seems to well and truly have burst. Poch's young guns took Pelligrini's expensively assembled prima donas apart and fed bits of themselves back to them, ripping them new holes all over the park. "It was a marvel to watch, as the youngest side to take to the field in a Prem match made City look like the Abu Dhabi equivalent of a pub-side. Kane broke his duck, Alli performed his usual rope-a-dope-a tricks with the City defence, and Eriksen was majestic, as always. And holding it all together was the magnificent Lamela. Against other sides, Lamela has looked like a flop, but against City, he looked like Pele! His footwork played havoc, as he made the City players look like sand-Arabs. He was a revelation and a joy!" [An extract from HIAG's BBC commentary on today's match]
What's happened to Aguero? He seems very out of form. Difficult for any team to cope when it's spine has been taken out. Hart, Kompany, Yaya (for some of the game) and an invisible Aguero.
