I raised an eyebrow at hearing that in Emirates Marketing Project's last 15 home games, they've only conceded eight goals. Five of them to us.

Thanks, but I still don't see the logic. Both scenarios are handball, one is given and the other not. What exactly would have been the difference?

I think claiming we were out worked or outplayed is inaccurate. We clearly went with a plan to contain and frustrate.
What I found annoying was our inability to be ruthless on the counter. A draw is a good result but we could have had more if we were more composed when we actually had the ball.

Even though we got a point we still look like the same team we looked for the majority of last season and how we have looked for the majority of games under Poch against the big teams. Its worrying that he has been here so long but we still have lots of games a season where we look clueless. Surely we should have learnt by now?

Handball needs to be “intentional”, unless it leads to the scoring of a goal for the team that handled it.
Had it deflected off of Laporte’s arm straight to Sissoko, who then chipped the keeper from 100 yards to score for us, that goal would have stood.

Modern football is rubbish. I'm embarrassed we have that point in our tally

I don’t think that’s fair, a couple of seasons ago we routinely spanked all of the big teams. It’s only the last 12 months in which we’ve struggled imo.

When ever we have a bad performance, the performances are practically the same. Its no coincidence that the performances last season coincide with the bad performances since he has been in charge. Its literally like watching the same game over and over when we play badly.

Moura's goal was great. Wonderful delivery from Lamela.

He’ll probably get fined though, the playbook says to hit the first defender from a corner.

Lamela's delivery has always been pretty decent, he fired another one just after that which was very dangerous too.

Don't be so moany. We got a point.

There was a bit of that but honestly, the City high press is very effective and impressive. The swarming all over our players, cutting passing options, 10-sec rule, etc is Pep's biggest contribution to the great Barca side he managed. He's brought this playbook with him everywhere he has gone to. Pep herpes I think I'll call it. The focus for this tactic is to cut out all options near the ball, but it overcommits and often there are Spurs players totally unmarked on the opposite flank. The trick is to switch the play or somehow break the initial press. If you can do this then you end up with numbers on your side but you need to prepare and coach for it. It didnt look like we were ready, IMO.

Well you take it off your own private league table, I’ll go with the official league table. Embarrassed to have the point? You are so fudging precious. How many times have we been fudged over by refs in the past? I’ll have every point possible. I’d wager that City don’t lose a game at home this season, and this point could be critical come May.

We let them play.
We didn't have enough dirty players on the pitch willing to foul in the right way.
Dembele, Dier and Alli were great at this. Even Wanyama on his day.
We made 4 fouls in the entire games. Not a single booking!
De Bruyne needed to be fully cleared out in the first half when he was running the game.

Thats right and it shows how pep and his players as a team outsmarts poch and our boys.
It takes vision and courage to look beyond the immediate play, and we were not prepared to switch flanks or go long.
When moura appeared I thought he showed how slow the Emirates Marketing Project defence was several times.
On the other it also confirms that we are a slow team and will struggle with teams that play with pace.

That's what I don't get, shearer obviously knows his stuff and yet when it came to the disallowed goal he wae
Does it need to be intentional? Thought that was one of the rule changes that if it hits the hand/arm then a foul will be called. Sissoko's 'handball' in the CL final certainly wasn't intentional. Without the ball hitting Laporte's arm it would not have gone to G. Jesus and he would not have scored, correct decision. I don't like VAR but if we are to have it then that is what it's for, didn't deserve a draw but will take it after such a naff performance.
