    This is what champions do, especially those who are as desperate to reclaim the trophy as Man City are.

    We've compared them to the former Man United teams who knew that regardless of the game, the stage of the season, the standards had to be high. They're getting their rewards for it.

  2. Still to come...published at 14:25 Greenwich Mean Time 15 January 2022

    Romain: Clearly Chelsea haven't even turned up at the Etihad today! Worse than Man United's display?

    Tunde: Is it me or did Chelsea players actually lack ideas in this game - or is it that Man City made them look that way?

  4. Racing towards the titlepublished at 14:23 Greenwich Mean Time 15 January 2022

    FT: Man City 1-0 Chelsea

    13 points clear. Liverpool could close that gap to eight points if they win their two games in hand.

    Chelsea have a huge gap to make up though. That's surely their title hopes over?

    Raheem Sterling has been incredible, back to the form we saw him in while playing for England.

    He looks really hungry for it at the moment and is taking the challenge to Chelsea.

    Mount on with a mountain to climb. Too little too late. Tuchel tactics all wrong today.

    It looks City who are more likely to score again. Raheem Sterling and Phil Foden are causing problems in and around the box.

    It comes to Jack Grealish on the left and he fires it towards goal from a tight angle. Kepa just about prevents a corner.

    Dan: This is the first time I’ve watched Man City with Grealish in the side… Pep has coached all the fun out of his game and amplified the facets which used to frustrate Aston Villa fans.

    Here's Ilkay Gundogan. Kevin de Bruyne is given a standing ovation. His goal looks set to give City all three points unless Chelsea can offer something.

    A flat Chelsea free-kick is dealt with by City and Phil Foden turns smartly in the middle before trying to set Raheem Sterling on his way.

    It's just cut-out and Hudson-Odoi then skews one way over the bar and into the stands.

    Mason Mount is getting ready to come on.

    Chelsea are starting to pick things up now too. Callum Hudson-Odoi slips in Cesar Azpilicueta on the right.
