Inter win at Parma as well.
Jonathan David, see, he wasn't that bad.
Funnily scored again, yeah.
But let's start at Manchester City because they were playing Brighton.
They're playing Brighton at home.
Obviously, the focus is going to be on the two centre-backs, Ruben Diaz and Joschka Vardal came off injured.
Vardal won't be back for some time now.
Are we just going to blame Kuzanov and Little Max who just came back from Watford?
I want to reinforce this.
This was a game where Brighton had a couple of very good chances.
City had, I think, their XG was well over two.
City did have their chances in this game.
But the whole point of being a dominant team, of putting the contrast between City and, say, Arsenal, the way they've approached the league this season, or even Liverpool last year, who are obviously more attacking than... is that you minimize the chances against you, and you don't just rely on potentially outscoring the other team because you have better players and you're at home.
This whole concept, and I go back to this, of Pep Guardiola, control, control...
he's just not there yeah i and i'm wondering and is this squad construction tools a little bit because again you know the situation with stones you know the situation with ake
Josco Guardiola and Ruben Diaz are your only, you know, first-rate guys that you can rely on, and now they're hurt.
Yeah, and on Semenyo, as we record this, reportedly he's having a medical today.
We expect him to sign.
He has not signed.
