The pressing and constant recycling of the ball is gone.
Part of City's struggles is Pep not knowing how to find a balance of his ideals and what City need right now
Which is weird considering City looked their best when he just stuck to his ideas. But it seems that period of no wins scared him out of it.

This game is showing exactly why Liverpool are so vulnerable at the back and how easy it is for them to drop points.

Perhaps, they're just too tired with "the intensity of PL" 2 games in 3 days fixture:smirk:

Feck off Defoe. Against us teams get 2 chances and score 4. Slight exaggeration but you get the idea.

Heaton is just a massive filip and confidence booster to the Burnley defence, I fear he's on his way to Liverpool or City.

Sunderland might lose this game but they have been very good so far and it is not an mean achievement to stand up and play well against liverpool and be equal after 30 mins for a relegation threatened team.
