Not sure about that. The set up was wrong in the first half but I do like him playing off Solanke. You can see the talent and skill, the one moment he turned his man on the right touchline so easily. Just needs some consistency around him and to build up his confidence.side note: first half would have been better if we had played one of our other wide players instead of RKM

Keep your hair on, Pep
Tuchel's presence probably helped.Gallagher looks a mentality shift player....needed
This is it. City are a good team but not invincible like some think. Teams are taking points of them regularly. They are likely to be 10-20pts off their best teams tallies and today it showed. We weren't lucky, a draw is a fair result, and second half we looked the better team with a depleted squad that some don't believe is good enough so credit to the players for stepping upAgreed, but on balance City didnt6desetve to go in in front, let alone 2 up - it was an even half
I dunno. Maybe forgivable considering the costly goals he's conceded recently in time added on.Was very critical at half time and feared the worst when Romero didn’t come out second half. Expected a pasting.
Credit Frank and the squad. That was some second half. Thought they all put in a shift but Xavi, Pahlinha, Solanke and Sarr were the standouts. A word for Dragusin too given how long he’s been out for.
My only slight gripe second half was with Vicario right at the end by leaving the ball out for a goal kick and high fiving people celebrating a draw. He should have been trying to release us from one final attack.
A good day though. Far more enjoyable than I anticipated this morning or at half time.
I like he got a hand to it ... The finish was just too good to save. Something beautiful about a keeper desperately hoping they could save it and then fail.It's just a shame that Donnarumma got a hand to it, reduced the aesthetics slightly.
Would have definitely have been the Puskas winner if not for that.

Na, unless we gave it away in our box, the game would have been blown up if City recovered possession. He had a chance to give us one last go at winning it and settled for (and celebrated) a draw.I dunno. Maybe forgivable considering the costly goals he's conceded recently in time added on.
Wrong formation/players in first half (RKM is not up for it)
Xavi looks the player we hoped
Palhinha has to be made permanent, guy is quietly racking up very good performances
Gallagher's best game so far
Odobert again showing promise
Solanke showing what a decent CF can get us
Pep can't even beat a Frank version of Spurs![]()
Was Romero sub tactical or is he also injured?
I've seen Franks interview, and it was because of illness so shouldn't be out for long would think....Great result for us.
Udogie is stepping up as well. Aways looks to drive forward down the left.
I think injury, didn't look comfortable when he was tracking back at one point

The Cherki finish was top class. Then their second goal came as a result of an Individual error, this time a Dragu pass straight back to city from deep. It put us under pressure immediately and we couldn't recover our defensive shape while City played through us. But before that I thought we were ok.First half was fine, people were reacting to the scoreline not the performance
