Nothing lucky about the goals we scored. Think we lost all our games there besides yesterday which was very fortunate

Fair play we give City a good game every single time. They don’t thrash us like they do most teams, I love it.

"City have conceded 8 goals in 2 seasons i believe at home. 5 of them to Tottenham"

What? This sounds like bollox

Anyone notice how cocky Ederson was in the beginning of the game playing quarter back. Changed his mind after Lamela caught him out

Sounds like a shat then ?

City conceded 12 goals at home last season and 11 away from home.

So not sure what is that 8 goals come from?

I remember Everton having a hold on City for a few seasons.

Never put a trophy in the cabinet, but have some great memories away at City peppering them with a team, not stars

I think it’s the last 16 home games. I assume all comps

You need a lIorente type player or a player like firmino who has a firs touch and can link the play up to counter their pressing. Spurs wanted to play from the back with players who can 't do that like Sanchez.

By pass their midget midfield with high or diagonal balls and you have 1v1 with their mediocre defenders like Zinchenko, Otamendi or Stones.

Spurs had 3 shots and 1 was from behind half way line. Man City had 30 shots. Probably one of the worst performances away to City last 2 seasons but got lucky.

You mean Dybala? He is the missing link for me

But Son would have solved the problem with his pace behind their full back, who had an easy time yesterday.

Nevertheless 1 point collected and 2 goals scored

That'll do thank you.

Up until the Lottery win, Spurs used regularly beat up City home and away over the past 40 years, they have won something approaching 30 games, and had loss barely 10. In the Prem era, City hardly recorded a win over Spurs until the Arab takeover.

Shows you what money can do.

What draw? That one you didn't get against City?

I'd rather get a 2-2 draw, then get 5-0 thrashing at home

Move on Sandy

We all know that and it's boring now, sorry mate

Fair play to them, we would do the same as them mate.

Its good to see that our club is up there with the elite on merits only. Hard graft and not Fifa game type investments.

I don't think it makes a difference now. A club need a big turnover in a year with ffp rules. You still need to invest the money wisely. Look to Man United they are an example that money alone doesn't make you successful. A good manager and football people in the boardroom is also important.

Spurs and Liverpool have done this the last few years.

City had to invest big in their first years under the Sheikh to close the gap with the traditional clubs.

The absolute mega money City have has made a massive difference, they had hardly won a trophy for donkey years before the lottery win, and like Chelsea before them, are now hoovering up trophies for fun.

They have spent more on their full backs, than most Prem clubs have on their entire squads.
