To be fair, their goal was a replica of a few this season.
Ball watching has cost us a shit load of goals this season. Johnson again tonight not even looking over his shoulder.
Great win, but could have been so much easier.

Great result but why didn’t Pep bring on Haaland?
We probably know the answer
We probably know the answer
He didn’t want to sub too early and potentially win a game that they didn’t deserve to?
Apart from the second half against Brighton our defence has been really good.
At our best we can beat any team in the league and at our worst we will lose to bottom dwellers.
Consistently inconsistent.
When he saw Ben "Big Balls" Davies on the pitch, he knew there was no point. They weren't scoring tonight.
Yeah I get where you’re coming from. I’ve been thinking exactly the same thing.
It wasn’t actually Haaland. It was a life size robot replica who walks, talks and looks like Haaland but can’t play football for shit. The technology just isn’t there yet.
The real Haaland was at home resting up.
They had no choice but to bring on a human child defender instead.
Great minds mate.
Pleased with that result. Can’t complain about another home draw either. Let’s hope this signifies a point in our season.
Could we be on course for a repeat of the great Juande Ramos semi finals against Woolwich?
Be nice to see the stadium absolutely rocking for a league cup semi final. Been a while.

Different set ups.
Right now, we struggle against physical teams who do their best to disrupt rhythm and flow by fouling or time wasting at every opportunity.
Whereas we tend to excel against teams who want to actually play football.
You can replicate the second. It's hard to replicate the first unless you're in the game state environment. What happened at Palace should be something we can use and learn from.
We're one of the best teams in Europe at it but it requires us to have our full strength back four.
1. With Doku, Grealish and Savinho injured he didn’t want to risk him.
2.He’s an arrogant twat who wanted to make a point of winning the game without him and embarrassing us.
On another note if anyone apart from

Thanks for blowing mine for me, fellow William.
Watched Johnson closely and he really just jogs about. Offers nothing in closing down abd doesn’t really help out in defence. When he has the ball he more often than not loses it or makes a shite pass. He may have scored some tapins but is generally woeful. When you watch him live this all too clear. I don’t like turbo but he does actually offer a threat running at players but crossing is pants. Ange said we needed to upgrade our attack from last season but we haven’t.
The team they put out was still very much Guardiola Ball. I did not see any compromises in their style of play at all. As far as I'm concerned, we beat Pep Guardiola's Man City. Full stop.
And, as others have said, we rested players as well,so it was very much a level playing field. It wasn't our first team against the kids.
Idiots thats who.We were nearly getting weaker as the game went on player wise. Plus gray and moore are not exactly veterans.
That city team beats 85% of prem teams
