know a few weeks ago city were in third

04:47

place city were a few points behind and

04:51

Liverpool were top and then people were

04:52

saying they got the easiest running I

04:55

mean it's still about the games in front

04:57

of us is it what I see today what I see

04:59

today and I'm going to bring in

05:01

Liverpool as this is I see three teams

05:03

over the weekend all got home games one

05:06

know exactly how to go about it and what

05:08

to do manager knows exactly who to leave

05:11

out and who not to and the other two

05:13

found wanting right and a mean found

05:16

wanting klopp a't got the players that

05:18

's got by the way like we're a better

05:19

team than Liverpool so uh and to for me

05:22

today arttea and Arsenal we had the

05:26

toughest game out of those three teams

05:27

this weekend didn't yeah you can say

05:29

that but like so they're in they've got

05:31

Europe they've got Europe like you know

05:33

I I looked at them I looked at look for

05:35

instance you know I love Dean rice but

05:39

today you can see was flagging he wasn't

05:41

the the energetic self that he has been

05:43

like you know I see their players come

05:45

back from where they played Thursday but

05:47

not nowhere near as difficult we've

05:48

we've we've played champions league and

05:51

we've played Europa League we as fans

05:53

have been in Europa League games and

05:55

Champions League games and and I don't

05:57

care as a fan you you can tell it's a

05:59

different

06:00

occasion drainer and everything like

06:02

that so you have to accept that

06:04

so they they wasn't there for the taking

06:07

but I look at it and I think right okay

06:09

if you're going to make changes today

06:10

make the right ones make the right

06:12

players you know the players that are

06:14

going to need to rest and things like

06:15

that like now you know they've had wrers

06:17

and everything like that but I see today

06:20

Dean rice trying to chase back and he

06:22

wasn't quite there I I see odard not

06:26

quite there today like you know and and

06:28

the and and the two ARS when it's

06:30

mattered look I've loved them I've

06:32

actually said you know that they'd

06:34

probably be in one of the oldtime

06:35

Arsenal teams they won't be neither will

06:38

ever get into the the best Arsenal team

06:41

ever until when it matters you defend

06:45

properly and they didn't today they

06:47

didn't again today I don't know what

06:48

happened with the pH think it must be

06:50

offside like you know I mean that ain't

06:51

how you defend Robbie you know at the

06:53

end of it you could still get something

06:56

out of that game like you know you

06:57

defend like that you know that's

06:59

criminal I don't care OE Watkins has

07:01

gone through and everything like that

07:03

that's criminal I another thing I didn't

07:05

like today about Arsenal was so many

07:07

times caught offside

07:10

laziness laziness of why he was getting

07:13

back on and all that like you know just

07:15

little things like that today and you

07:17

can turn around and go on with this and

07:19

this that I believe it is the pressure

07:21

of today and I'll tell you what I think

07:23

I'm going to say you might think I'm

07:25

silly when I say this if Liverpool would

07:27

have won today Arsenal would have won

07:30

right I'm telling you the pressure today

07:31

of that

07:33

result I felt that there was a different

07:35

atmosphere in the you know we was all

07:37

celebrating uh Liverpool winning today

07:40

you know sorry losing yeah without doing

07:44

what we had to do that that that was the

07:46

thing today you know I mean it's we

07:49

we thought what we was going to come

07:51

here today and just win and it ain't

07:54

going to be like that and I can tell you

07:56

this now Manchester City won't be like

07:58

that they they a little I don't think

08:00

menest if you said me now's the better

08:02

team I think Arsenal's still the better

08:03

team this season but they've got nowh

08:05

they know how to deal with it and they'

08:07

got no out to go and we're going to have

08:08

to learn from that I thought Arsenal

08:12

would have learned from last season's

08:13

pain they obviously haven't they

08:15

obviously haven't because today I see

08:18

what I see last season but the biggest

08:20

thing for me today and I'll leave it on

08:21

this was that I felt that Aston Villa

08:24

players wanted Champions League football

08:28

more than we wanted the Premier League

08:29

and that that that's the thing that's

08:30

hurt me today lot you know and that's

08:32

the thing I'll go home today and and say

08:34

and and uh I I think because of the the

08:39

the Bayern Munich game and I still say

08:41

that he's got one eye on that on on a

08:43

couple of decisions because when you

08:45

look at it today you have to say why is

08:48

Joel jio not playing in there why have

08:50

you changed that the reason he's changed

08:52

that because he's thinking of the Bayern

08:53

Munich game and like you know it's cuss

08:58

us for
