His pass to Alvarez before the second goal was excellent. Could also have a goal already, unlucky to double-hit the post. I think only injuries can stop his meteoric rise to the top.
I don't get the Doku hype. Looks like a very low IQ footballer to me. He's fast and has a decent dribble but decision making is off form Nani tier. Even his pass for the goal was a lucky deflection.
Eh? It was a perfect nutmeg pass.
I thought he hit the defender's foot. Maybe I didn't see it right.
He seemed to do it apologetically as if he didn't really believe it was handball. I guess that was why he went to the screen then, penalty had actually been given and so he had to go there to overturn it.
Messy end especially with Brighton not even getting a corner from it! I assume they'd have sent the keeper up so would've been an interesting one for Chelsea to defend.
Just seen that second city goal. I remember when we used to see our players connect like that in the final third 
Expected better from us, City should be out of sight.
Did enjoy Carragher giving his Spurs need to go long speech though just as we put together our best string of passes and were onto their back four.

In our games I see our players leaving players wide open.
we couldn’t even get a proper throw in to one of our players… what does that tell us? Our players don’t go to the ball for 75 percent of the game. When we are direct, fast and agressive we look fine.
is ten Hag telling the team to slow it down because he’s afraid we aren’t effective enough?
City without the ball do the opposite.
Anyone i suppose we want spurs to lose so they don’t get further up above us? We accept city will finish above us. Quite lucky Brighton lost.
That was very enjoyable. I'd only been watching for about 5/10 minutes at that point, so to me he sounded like a lunatic.
He's actually not very fast over distance, but he's quick and has a good burst of acceleration. Very short strides.
This is the worst football kit of all time. It is literally shit.
Decent dribble? That's probably his best asset.
They have a legendary manager and know if they don't do as asked they will be on their bike. We have just let the players rule the roost.
And a fanbase which is turning on the manager before it turns on the players, despite a fair chunk of them letting three managers down (and counting...)
It is knowing what is the right thing to do. I agree the players need to take responsibility for their own performances and stop looking to blame managers/coaches. We don't know what is going on with the manager regarding the partial sale. Has he been given reassurances or the opposite.
Jack Grealish misses Villa game after kicking the ball away. What a nitwit.
Yep Rodri, Grealish out and Doku I presume a major doubt....so just Alvarez, Silva, Haaland, Foden all to keep quiet.
Surprised they're not giving Stones minutes, he's the obvious Rodri replacement.
No Neville, he wasn't "well offside." Are these commentators dense? How do they still not understand that tight offsides are allowed to play on.
I don't understand your post, so I don't know if you're agreeing or disagreeing with me.
But the fact is that we have multiple players who have repeatedly, under three managers (Ole, RR, EtH), shown that they are prone to decide that they simply do not give a feck about running and competing on the pitch. What makes you think they'll change as the fourth guy comes in? "Oh but they'll respect the new guy". Some of these guys did the same under Mourinho, so who's got a better reputation than him that we might go for? And if we get an up-and-coming guy in it'll be the same as with EtH.
At least EtH seems very strict on disciplinary issues, so it'll be something that he'll want to sort out given enough time. Going for someone else, we might as well get someone who's so excited to be here that he lets the players run the ship just like Ole did.
Seriously, bar five or six players I'd let everyone leave and start over with a motivated group of players that give their all, take instructions from the manager (whoever that may be) and seem like they care about their performances at least half as much as they do about their salary.
This game is really really poor.
City just going through the motions, Spurs just keep trying to play out of their own box with absolutely zero joy.
Why not mix it up and go long every now and then?!

We've fallen into a weird lull here. Poor 2nd half wouldn't be surprised if Spurs knick a point
Been coming.
Helloooo
2-2
RIDICIULOUS
Knew it.
Fully deserved for Spurs in the second half. City should have been 5-1 up at HT. Paying for it now.
I agree to give manager a chance, weed out the troublemakers. For goodness sake find out what the plan is for how we are going to play, if there is a plan and sign players to fit that plan. Lo Celso has equalised.
Pep and his water, never fails.
Ederson is really not a great shot stopper. The two goals are on him.
Poor by Ederson again, 2 terrible attempts on both goals.
This City team is genuinely horrid by their own standards.
Hmmm
What are City doing? Need to wake up
Tottenham is all over Man City at the moment
And yet they still gave us an absolute bollocking.
?Hmmm
That's a great counter-attack there.
City should've ran away with this game while they were ahead.
