This shouldn’t be surprising. We’ve seen how ridiculously good those City vs Liverpool title deciding games were.

No way in hell Arsenal is matching that.

This. It was evident all game how inferior Arsenal are. Even when City dominated possession against Liverpool like they do every team...prime Salah, Firmino and Mane put the fear of god in them. Arsenal don't have the same surgical counter-attacking ability.

They've obviously improved but...

Well, this was fun while it lasted. Its been a while since I got to feel this way during a season up til March. Disappointing season in the moment, but overall good progress. We need to upgrade this midfield with more steel. Now that Haaland and De Bruyne are like golden freeza levels, we need some steel there. Tho, I'm 100% sure Saliba would have been better on Haaland than Holding.
