“He played like a League II player today and missed alot of chances, he will never start for Manchester City this season till he improves his style of play-Pep Guardiola has sent critical warning to Manchester City Star after awful performance today.
So on it goes. A three-way title race that appears to be going the distance remains as tense as it was before Easter weekend, albeit not as tight following Liverpool’s flawless Sunday.
Jurgen Klopp’s team has eked out an edge, coming from behind once more for a nail-biting victory over Brighton before seeing their rivals kick lumps out of each other in a game that was high on tension but low on quality.
The first goalless draw at the Etihad since September 2021 means Pep Guardiola’s team will have to rely on others. If they are to win the Premier League for the fourth time in a row, Liverpool and Arsenal must falter. You wouldn’t rule it out given the stakes, and the Blues still have experience to fall back on, but their margin for mistake is shrinking by the week.
They couldn’t afford to lose this game, and they didn’t, but they also didn’t appear to win it. Liverpool and Arsenal were thrashed 4-1 in the span of a month, while Bayern Munich lost 3-0 and Real Madrid 4-0.
However, so far, this campaign has lacked those types of statement victories. There had been a defeat at the Emirates and two draws against Liverpool.
