It's not easy when a team literally are just camping their whole team on the edge of the box.
That sending off was the worst thing to happen to this game.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran are here to talk about a frustrating 2 points dropped at Crystal Palace. They then discuss the regeneration of Old Trafford. Finally, Nik is joined by special guest Michael Statham from the Football Oranje podcast - who gives us a more in depth look at our EL opposition FC Twente, and then runs through the (many) Dutch connections currently at United.
That sending off was the worst thing to happen to this game.
we've looked less fit than most opponents for at least three years... I've said it dozens of times
That's the best part about this. Hard to feel any sympathy for that lot.
We're at 10 minutes ET.... (unofficially)
This is a type of game gundogan and Rodri would score to turn things around. Rodri not being there is a blow to city
They're down to 10 men and they're playing against a club that have cheated on an industrial scale to acquire the coaching and playing set up that they have. F**k them.
When City gets relegated, Arsenal will be hard to shift off top spot. Dominance.
Almost went three minutes without an Arsenal player feigning injury there. I was starting to get worried.
Kovatic has the IQ of a milk bottle
Perfect assessment of Oliver, he's the most inconsistent referee I've ever seen. Always let out a little groan when he's in charge of united games. There's only Mike Dean who I found more irritating.
Arsenal can't be allowed to get away with this sort of anti football
City look clueless
Dias has no business being in those shooting positions
They're all basically in the Arsenal box. Everyone is in a shooting position.
City have zero ideas. Just passing it around the penalty box with no threat at all.
Their opponents packed the box
He’s not alone though (not that it makes it right)? Goalies know refs can’t force them off like they can outfield players and play on it. Separate match clock that stops instantly and it’d stop OR wouldn’t matter?
We won the FA cup playing like this. Albeit with 11 men but Rodri, KDB and Foden all on the pitch.
It's very Jose 04-07 Chelsea this from Arsenal. Very compact.
I’m not necessarily talking about dirty tactics, I mean that they’re organised, committed…..and killing themselves to hold this win. We’d have crumbled 20 minutes ago
Another few minutes Pep will be on his seat with the water bottle
Here comes Grealish with the latest diving update
Man, Martinelli really needs to be doing better as the lone option for an out ball.
what the hell is he bringing john stones on for?
This is absolute shite to watch. This is meant to be the big game in this league now right? Bit sad.
Will the real Grealish please stand up
City’s record without Rodri is insane
The ref will just keep adding on time until City score. We'll be lucky if this game is finished by 7.
They are down to ten men !!! What would you have them do ??? All out attack !!
6-3-0
Elite bus parking. Feels like when you activate all defensive buffs in an RPG
It was great until the sending off ruined it
Wtf Kovacic 
Last season's version was even worse.
This game is going a lot like the fa cup final, apart from controversial decisions and sending offs of course.
I was wrong... a milk bottle is more intelligent than Kovatic
Its the equivalent of watching someone just turtlingup on the ground in an mma fight
Repeating myself a bit but they used to cry about Stoke City...
City are playing in to arsenals hands with all these long range shots.. this defence can’t really been worked at all.
If your plan is to take potshots from 25 yards, wouldn't it be an idea to put somebody in that area who can actually hit one, rather than relying on Ruben Dias's left foot?
