Follow the action as Pep Guardiola's side face Mikel Arteta's title-chasers at the Etihad in a match with huge implications at the top of the tableTo add to that from Mark on Rodri, look at the intensity he is playing with today. He is especially attuned to those second balls, seeming to know where they are going to land and showing the determination to get there.
That's better though. If Arsenal can start carrying an attacking threat then this resolve beginning can evolve into something more promising.That Ake substitution afforded Arteta a chance for a little tactical discussion with Jorginho, Saliba, Gabriel and Kiwior. Let's see if his advice can help Arsenal settle.As trailed by Sam, Ake wasn't moving too well for a few minutes there and now he's been taken off. That's not ideal injury news for City.
Well, after those early flurries the game has slipped into a pattern of City's controlled possession and Arsenal sitting in a compact, deep shape - including Saka and Jesus as almost wing-backs. Mateo Kovacic is coming very deep in Manchester City’s build-up — essentially starting as a left centre-back to collect the ball off Ortega.White gets space on the right, floats a cross into Jesus who controls well - but his low drive ruffles the wrong side of the side-netting.
