There haven’t been many sticky moments for Manchester City on the pitch this season but one has found a way back into the mind. It involves Ivan Toney, so you will see where I’m going with this.
The date in question was November 12, when Arsenal were running hot. They had a two-point lead at the top of the table before the round of games that Saturday and by the close of business they were up by five points.
Part of that was down to their win at Wolves in the evening, but it was more closely tied to what Toney did to City at the Etihad Stadium a few hours earlier in the midday kick-off.
