Why can't City just keep their shots down?
Amazes me how often footballers just blast it miles over the bar.

Arsenal have a goal advantage. What's that in mma world?
City resorting to trying to pass them to death... look so out of ideas, it's odd
Commentators are acting like City are on the brink of scoring when actually Arsenal have been comfortable
Being ahead in points and seeing out the fight. Its smart, but annoying, and most fans would want to see it fail
Absolutely this. The way they’d bitch and moan when anyone dared to do anything other than try and play football against them the way they think football should be played was ridiculous.
I for one am shocked..
BBC… “Man City 1-2 Arsenal : Nothing is quite clicking for Manchester City and there is a hush around the Etihad.”

Yeah, perhaps
Lego Pep at the wheel. Hold on to your seat.
Arsenal looks sooooo comfortable. Wonder what the second half xg is for City. Other than that early Haaland header there’s nothing.
Far too slow and narrow from City
Arsenal winning at the emptihad is huge, they'll win the title this season
Not Really !!
N5 baby.
That was 20 years ago and Stoke used to do it from minute 1 with 11 men.
This isn't over yet.
it's like hitting the first man from corners or free kicks
This has been seriously comfortable for Arsenal - City haven’t created anything second half!
Are you watching the game? Arsenal have been playing this way all game and against Spurs last week too
“The difference for Arsenal between being top of the league or 5 points behind” it’s fecking September. Swear I’m going crazy when I hear commentators and pundits nowadays. Arsenal have been top in April recently and still ended up a load of points off the top.
Raya should be booked for time wasting
Ideally City to score the equalizer in the 9th minute of added time. Would be deflating result for both teams.
Even if City turn this around they desperately need Rodri. He is their MVP.
Some of City's shooting....
that is appalling from Diaz
Not saying there was. It just wasn’t the ‘mesmeric’ leap Neville was on about.
Like I said, Dias has no business being in those positions
Cramp
No, they used to moan that Stoke didn't even pretend to play football, they just had a team of rugby esque goons who smashed it long and relied on Wimbledon bully boy tactics in the box.
You can't compare that to having someone strong in the air on set pieces as one of many options. Especially for a team who are one of the most aesthetically pleasing on the ball.
de bruyne is rather useful too
Arsenals time wasting is laughably obvious. Not so much dark arts but just dumb.
Who was that Arsenal player who tried to time waste again??
This is so awful to watch
Arsenal didn't have 11 men behind the ball all first half. I did not see Spurs last week.
No they haven't created anything. But it hasn't been comfortable at all, they are fecked and rarely for them, look knackered. Colossal effort to hold shape.
Jesus
Usually, they'll get Rodri sending one in from these positions.Like I said, Dias has no business being in those positions
This is shite viewing
This is the one time you'd ideally want Haaland outside the box. Let him take the potshots if that really is your best hope, or at least maybe create space for someone else if a defender commits.
Dias is like when you don’t defend the one with a shite shot in basketball
