    Greg Matthews: How many times have we seen this from Arsenal in big away games in the last 10 years? Baffling how Wenger is still in this job

    Matthias Siefert: Shocking capitulation by Arsenal in the second half. Totally bullied into submission.

    Manchester City 2-1 Arsenal

    Manchester City send on Jesus Navas and straight away he crosses to the near post, Kevin de Bruyne and an Arsenal defender arrive on it and turn it onto the post! That was close.

    Kelvin: Isn't there a rule where if someone is offside and interfering play, goal won't count? David Silva?

    Jamie Brilley: Is it me or did Silva go to play the ball from Sterlings shot? If so technically offside

    Josh Richards: Is David Silva not offiside & interfering with play there ?

    GOAL - Tottenham 2-1 Burnleypublished at 17:32 Greenwich Mean Time 18 December 2016

    Danny Rose (71 mins)

    And the lack of red card for Moussa Sissoko hurts Burnley because he dashes through the middle on the counter attack and finds Danny Rose in space, one touch to settle and then bang, he flashes it home at the near post. Wonderful strike.

    You're a lucky boy Moussa Sissoko. He challenges for a bouncing ball and catches a Burnley player very high. Thigh high. Could have been red...

    Massive credit has to go to Kevin de Bruyne. He played the most delightful pass out wide to Sterling.

    Manchester City have come out in this second half and have still been dominant in possession but have started creating chances.

    I don't think David Silva was in the wrong there - he was offside but out of Petr Cech's way. Arsenal send for Olivier Giroud.

    GOAL - Manchester City 2-1 Arsenalpublished at 17:27 Greenwich Mean Time 18 December 2016

    Raheem Sterling (71 mins)

    What a pass! That is sensational from Kevin de Bruyne, who takes a ball from a throw on the halfway line, with his back to goal and swivels to ping a ridiculous pass over the top to Raheem Sterling on the opposite wing. Perfect weight too. 

    Sterling is shown inside on to his left foot by Nacho Monreal, and takes advantage by hammering in low past Petr Cech at his near post. David Silva was right in front of Cech and looked offside. Was he interfering?

    Chasing back and harrying isn't Mesut Ozil's game.

    But that's Petr Cech's game! Fine save to keep out Kevin de Bruyne's long-range, deflected shot.

    Tottenham 1-1 Burnley

    That's a brilliant save! Tom Heaton down to his left to keep out a fine effort from the edge of the box by Christian Eriksen. He did well to get there but beyond that somehow stopped the ball running out to Harry Kane. Almost applied some check side there, and Ben Mee is able to clear.

    Almost genius from Dele Alli. He receives the ball just outside the area and turns to play a wonderful curler, which sets off miles wide and high of the goal but drifts and dips - just beyond the top corner. Really close!

    City now have runners in behind and that is what you have got to do. 

    When you play with a false number nine you need wide players to go beyond the defence.

    City have had some fantastic cups of tea at half time. Their tempo has been much better.

    Arsenal are suffering here and Manchester City, as well as their fans, sense it. The Gunners need their big players to step up here, especially Mesut Ozil. He has been, to put it politely, peripheral.
