People were getting carried away by Slot’s start as expected. Today isn’t a disaster by any means but it’s a wake up call for those thinking Slot would just stroll in and pick up from where Klopp left off.
City seemed like they were hanging on in that first half with Brentford seemingly controlling the game at the Etihad.
As for us, appalling first half hour. We sorted ourselves out after that and looked really comfortable even before the red. It changes nothing though. Consistency is the only thing going to save Ten Hag, not one-off performances like this one.
