“When they faced us here in the Etihad, I saw them \u2014 these guys they don’t want to beat us, they just want to draw.”<\/p>\n
Rodri’s unsparing assessment of Arsenal after Manchester City won their fourth consecutive Premier League title in May has done the rounds again ahead of Sunday’s meeting between the sides at the Etihad Stadium. <\/p>\n
In last season’s corresponding fixture, the Gunners claimed a 0-0 draw to keep their noses in front of City in the race<\/span> for glory, only to be pipped at the post by Pep Guardiola’s relentless side.<\/p>\n So, how much do they want to win this time?

RICCARDO CALAFIORI WITH A SCREAMER OUT OF NOTHING TO EQUALISE<\/strong><\/p>\n Quick free-kick talent inside the centre circle. Kyle Walker not happy, mainly because he’s out of possession and has given Martinelli the run of the left wing. He cuts the ball back to Calafiori who absolutely creams <\/em>one into the far corner beyond Ederson. Wonderful goal.<\/p>\n 20 mins<\/strong>: Rodri makes way for Kovacic and looks to be close to tears. This is really quite a febrile atmosphere now and referee Michael Oliver looks in danger of losing control.<\/p>\n 18 mins<\/strong>: Concern here for Rodri, who collided with Partey as they were jostling to get on the end of a Savinho corner. The Spain midfielder looks to have jarred and twisted his knee on the way down. That could be serious. Mateo Kovacic is warming up.<\/p>\n 14 mins<\/strong>: Gundogan hits the post!<\/strong> City’s German maestro rolling back the years here in the opening stage. He wins a free-kick just outside the D and takes it himself, cracking the ball against the outside of David Raya’s right post. <\/p>\n 11 mins<\/strong>: Saka looks to fashion an instant response for Arsenal but Rodri gets back to clear the danger ahead of Trossard<\/p>\n 9 mins<\/strong>: GOAL! ERLING HAALAND’S 10TH OF THE SEASON GIVE MANCHESTER CITY THE LEAD!!!!<\/strong><\/p>\n Walker knocks the ball inside to Savinho, who slots a pass between Gabriel and Calafiori. They’ve given Haaland an unforgivable amount of room and the outcome is inevitable.<\/p>\n 8 mins<\/strong>: The ball spins up off Gundogan. The City midfielder’s eyes light up but he slices his volley wide from inside the area. “Boring, boring Arsenal!” honk the City fans.<\/p>\n 3 mins<\/b>: Rodri is back with us after giving Havertz a piece of his mind. Now City are rabidly pressing Arsenal in their own third. This feels spicy. Cheers, Kai.<\/p>\n City get us underway and Kai Havertz charges straight into Rodri, bashing the City midfielder to the floor. The initial suspicion was that Rodri is making the most of that but he actually appears to be hurt.<\/p>\n 5 mins before kickoff<\/strong>: Here are the teams to a crackling reception. The City fans boo the Premier League anthem, with the Arsenal fans applauding in response. Who said people couldn’t do multi-layered terrace banter about complex legal matters.<\/p>\n 15 mins before kickoff<\/strong>: The teams have completed their warmups and the atmosphere is building nicely. Hopefully it passes muster with Peter Schmeichel<\/span>, who is pitchside on punditry duties.<\/p>\n 40 mins before kickoff<\/strong>: It wouldn’t be a big game without a Pep Guardiola teamsheet causing a few arched eyebrows. Rico Lewis is pretty unlucky not to have made it but that looks like a very robust City back four and a very sensible midfield built for ball retention. Then in the front three, with both Savinho and Doku it all gets a bit free form and jazzy. It’s definitely a surprise to see Grealish and Foden both on the bench after each England man impressed against Inter in midweek. Watford have City in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday and I be they’re delighted to see each of them with their feet up.<\/p>\nMan City vs. Arsenal score<\/h2>\n
