Chris Sutton baffled by what he’s learnt about Man City recently

Manchester City

Chris Sutton has said that he can’t believe one thing about Manchester City recently.

After being knocked out of the Champions League by Real Madrid, the Blues are now fighting to win another Premier League title. Then they face a FA Cup final clash against Manchester United.

Having seen City play eight games in total across April, one pundit has shared his thoughts on what the club have done recently. Shutting down one particular claim about them and their recent efforts on the pitch.

What Chris Sutton said:

Speaking in a recent episode of It’s All Kicking Off, Sutton had this to say after Ian Ladyman, suggested that City have been grinding out results recently.

He said:

That’s utter nonsense. That actually is utter nonsense. Manchester City will probably tell you they are too tired to be emotional.

But can I just read you City’s last five results in the Premier League. Grinding it out – 2-0 away at Forest, 4-0 away at Brighton, 5-1 at home to Luton, 4-2 away at an improving Palace team and 4-1 at home to Villa.

That’s not grinding it out.”

In the Premier League, Pep Guardiola’s side are currently one point behind Arsenal at the top of the league table. But have a game in hand over the Gunners.

With Sutton highlighting the scores of City’s five previous league games. Where they have found the back of the net 15 times in total and conceded four. This shows that the Blues haven’t necessarily scraped their way to these victories as Ladyman suggested.
