That's how things are looking so far in that tight city with the 2-0 lead and on Wednesday they will try to see it out.

Now let's take a look at Manchester City's transfer window.

They've been busy in January, namely Antoine Semenyo and Marc Gueye coming in as rivals and Pep Guardiola was asked if he was happy with the January transfer window for his club and he was a little bit jokey when he answered.

I mean, he's right, obviously.

He had a little bit of jokes.

I'll tell you what.

No, he's not.

That was horrible.

He does seem, though, to be pushing back on the narrative that City buys their success, Stevie.

Saying, you know, these guys should be doing this if they've spent all this money.

Because that is what used to be said of them.

Oh, well, with all the money they've spent.

That joke did not hit with Stevie, did it?

Excuse the pun, because I really don't mean it here, but he does seem to have a little bit of a pep in his step right now.

It feels as though he feels like the tide is turning for his team when it had been going against them.

Yes or no?

He feels a bit more punchy in these...

Even with these new players coming in?

What do you think, Robbo?

Is he deflecting?
