    Kelechi Iheanacho and Bacary Sagna are both going through intense warm-ups on the pitch. Time for a change?

    You get the impression that if City don't up the intensity and find a focal point then it could get embarrassing. 

    Arsenal should blast for the next 10 or 15 minutes and try and put City away.

    Arsenal have just shaded it and probably deserve their lead.

    Going forward they have had much better cutting edge, their running off the ball has been more dynamic. 

    Apart from great chance for Sterling, Arsenal have allowed City possession but it hasn't created anything.

    Tottenham 1-1 Burnley

    Spurs keep the ball, like Manchester City, but there's much more end product as Victor Wanyama has their 18th shot of the half, straight at Tom Heaton on this occasion though.

    Pretty much silence at the Etihad at the whistle. Pep Guardiola gestures with his elbow at the fourth official, not sure what that's about.

    Yaya Toure finally registers an effort on target, but it's a header at Petr Cech from 15 yards out. Regulation.

    Arsenal's passing when they go forward is a lot more decisive, clean cut and penetrating than Manchester City.

    City have the ball, City have the ball, City have the ball, City have the ball, City have the ball, City have the ball, City have the ball, City have the ball, Arsenal nearly score.

    City have the ball, City have the ball, City have the ball, City have the ball, City have the ball, City have the ball, City have the ball, City have the ball, Arsenal nearly score.

    City have the ball, City have the ball, City have the ball, City have the ball, City have the ball, City have the ball, City have the ball, City have the ball, Arsenal nearly score.  

    This time Arsenal put together some lovely one-touch passing to send Nacho Monreal clean through, he finds Alex Iwobi who drives into the bottom corner - but the flag had long been raised.

    Spurs close to another, they have had plenty of sights of goals already. Harry Kane breaks the offside trap of sorts to run into the area, he's going away from goal though and it's a tight angle, Tom Heaton makes himself big and saves with his feet.

    Lee Walker: Looks like Guardiola will need time to adapt to Premier but think he will change his approach. Not as stubborn as LvG.

    Mike Godfrey: Why is anyone surprised about Guardiola - he's only ever managed ready made teams before, he is grossly overhyped by the media

    John McEnerney: MCFC players look like they've been traumatized by Pep's tactics they don't know whether they're coming or going!

    Fabulous play from Leroy Sane, who suddenly comes to life and beats to defenders on the right and drives in a cross to the near post, where Kevin de Bruyne is crowded out. Much better from City.

    Arsenal are just moving faster, and thinking a yard ahead of Manchester City. Again Theo Walcott, Alexis Sanchez and Mesut Ozil all combine in tight areas around the penalty area and eventually Hector Bellerin shoots over.

    Arsenal look to break clear and David Silva steps over to stop Francis Coquelin in his tracks. A 'good foul', they call that. He's booked though.

    Sanchez is on fire. Arsenal's movement just looks a little bit more dynamic, a little sharper.

    Lovely cross, Nacho Monreal gets his head up and is able to deliver to the near post, where Theo Walcott sends a header spinning just past the post.

    Burnley have a corner, it's cleared, Dean Marney takes a bad touch on halfway and Spurs are in. It comes to Harry Kane on the edge of the area, under pressure he doesn't know whether to shoot or pass it our left and his chance is blocked.
