2 crucial goals conceded on the counter, City have a lot of work to do!
Pivotal win for Chelsea. City's defence does not look good enough. One clean sheet in 15 games now. Bravo is not a better keeper than Hart.

Oh dear! Oh dear!
Sergio Aguero and Fernandinho misses Man City vs. Arsenal after receiving a red card in their game against Chelsea.

Kante for Ballon d’or!
Leicester with Kanté: Champions. Without Kanté: struggling. Chelsea last season: struggled. With Kanté: Top. Coincidence? I don't think so.
