Not including this game Arsenal record VS City in the last 11 PL games is 0-2-9. The last game Arsenal won in the PL against City was in 2015 yikes

Should be a new rule brought in that when a team has a freekick if any player from the opposition team picks up the ball and runs with it a little they should get an automatic yellow card. Does my head in

If a centre back can come in and make John Stones play like Beckenbauer, he is definitely worth the money. Ruben Dias is absolutely class.

Their whole defence and Rodri are solid for years to come. Frightening.

United has some unnatural attachment with the players. Sell when they have value and upgrade. Lindelof or bailly should have been sold to get Dias a year ago.

There's just no competition for City is there? They just sleepwalked to a win here today. Pathetic.

Was that one of the most boring games you’ve ever watched?

He looks to be a terrific leader and communicator. Always quick to encourage Stones when he does something well. They’ve found their new Kompany.

Arsenal trailed at home for 88 minutes but didn't manage a shot on target . City are good but wtf is Arteta doing as a manager .

Poor today, and the kind of game we'd have thrown away last season before John Stones decided to became Franco Baresi. Shocking 70 minutes of nothing football after the first 20 minutes

Such a snoosefest of a 2nd half that was. 1 shot on target between the two sides?

Arsenal have lost their last 8 league matches in a row against City. And Arsenal have failed to score in their last 4 home games against City. Enough said..

Did Pep & Arteta plan for this, scoring early goal and settle for 1-0 win instead of 4-1 like vs Liverpool? Both teams have no intention to try have a go for 2nd goal. Even more weird is that why Arsenal players keep making float crosses like if there is Giroud or Carroll in the box.

City have that aura where teams just turn up knowing they’ll lose

Thry don’t even need to play well half the time.

Thought the Mayweather analogy about City by Neville was pretty spot on. They just suffocate you for the whole 90 into a position where you're unable to do anything.

Arsenal are gash as hell. You have to be beating teams like this and that's why City are going to be deserved title winners.

It just felt orchestrated. Maybe Pep doesn't want to hand his 'friend' a thrashing and told his players to go easy.

And how many times have City scored inside three minutes against Arsenal now?

13 wins in a row for City. No way a team putting such run ends up losing it all. It's over.

Watching Dias is the perfect example of how transfers can be such a gamble. We wrote him off here, including very knowledgeable Portuguese followers. Apparently he wasn't even Citeh's first choice. And yet he's turning into the signing of the season.

Fines surely coming for Arsenal midfielders running toward the city box toward the end of the game trying to score a goal. That type of insubordination cannot be tolerated.

Very sloppy start from Utd passing has been terrible.. shaw has been decent again feel if we are to get a goal it will come from the left side of the pitch.

We don't show a lot of desire, do we?

Jenas before becoming a pundit studied a football cliche dictionary.
