Chris Sutton has labelled Gary Neville's accusation that Manchester City are complacent 'deeply unfair'.
Ex-Premier League star Sutton explained that City have faced four challenging opponents in a row and thinks they are still the best team in the division.
City are winless in four outings after draws with Chelsea, Liverpool, and Tottenham before a 1-0 loss at Aston Villa on Wednesday night.
No Pep Guardiola side has ever recorded fewer shots (two) or allowed the opposition more chances than City did against Villa (22).
Speaking on Mail Sport's It's All Kicking Off podcast, Ian Ladyman criticised their 'abject' attacking performance against Villa but while Sutton believes they have 'dipped', he doesn't see a full-blown crisis.
