City&#8217;s spot-kick woes continue<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Gabriel Jesus thought he was going to break the deadlock when tasked from 12 yards with nine minutes of the first half to be played. Should the Brazilian marksman have been confident given he&#8217;s already missed from the spot this season (albeit that came in the Champions League against Atalanta). Would it have preyed on his mind? We don&#8217;t know. But he did miss again.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">5 &#8211; Gabriel Jesus has failed to score three of his five Premier League penalties (60%) &#8211; of all players to have taken at least five in the competition, no-one has a worse success rate than the Brazilian (level with Stewart Downing and El Hadji Diouf).

Raheem Sterling also missed, against Wolves though it was retaken, with Sergio Aguero &#8212; who holds a 100% record regarding penalties &#8212; on the bench it was natural that a forward stood up to be counted. But given the club&#8217;s best dead-ball specialist is a midfielder (Kevin De Bruyne) one wonders why he&#8217;s not taking them in Kun&#8217;s absence especially when a spot-kick should essentially be a free goal.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>2. Are you watching Southgate?<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>No fewer than seven players eligible to represent England started tonight&#8217;s game at Bramall Lane with Sterling and Kyle Walker being the most high-profile. National team boss Gareth Southgate who&#8217;s undoubtedly finalising his Euro 2020 squad, whilst praying for no more serious injuries befalling key personnel, has previously selected Sheffield United goalkeeper Dean Henderson (on loan from Man Utd) in four matchday squads, but all with him remaining on the bench.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">What.

Aside from making a number of outstanding saves, including bizarrely from close range to deny Nicolas Otamendi who pulled off a spectacular overhead kick, he was up to the challenge to deny Jesus from 12 yards. Jordan Pickford is the Three Lions undisputed number one, but tonight was a reminder of the strong competition behind him. England&#8217;s upcoming friendlies in March &#8212; against Italy and Denmark &#8212; is a perfect opportunity to bed him in.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>3.

We are, of course, talking about &#8216;tactical fouling&#8217;. Fernandinho, no stranger to such instructions, was booked in the second half not long after Oliver Norwood was shown a yellow for the exact same crime. Some may wince, but it&#8217;s part and parcel of the beautiful game, especially given the speed it is being played at these days. You either risk giving away a one-on-one opportunity or ensure the counter is repelled by any means necessary.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Know Your Squad: \u2018Almiro\u0301n?!\u2019 Newcastle fans quizzed w\/Sophie Rose\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/CIk5w5B5mVg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>Subscribe to <a href=\"http:\/\/sqwk.at\/Squawka-Sub\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Squawka\u2019s Youtube channel here<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><strong>4.

Welcome back<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>To say Manchester City have missed Aymeric Laporte is an understatement. After being sidelined for 144 days he was back in Pep Guardiola&#8217;s starting lineup. No hesitation. You get the feeling, post-Vincent Kompany, he&#8217;s the one centre-back that Guardiola trusts. When playing at his optimum the Frenchman sits alongside Virgil van Dijk and Toby Alderweireld as the league&#8217;s premier CBs. In his absence, the defending Premier League champions have flattered to deceive at the back. Aside from his overall play, in both defence and offence, Laporte&#8217;s leadership was sorely missed.\u00a0Desperate times call for desperate measures.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-conversation=\"none\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"und\">??? <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/JcMdGtP5wl\">pic.twitter.com\/JcMdGtP5wl<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Manchester City (@ManCity) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ManCity\/status\/1219689000476258304?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 21, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>City&#8217;s chances of clinching a third successive top-flight crown is slim to none (if we are being really honest) given Liverpool&#8217;s lead with 15 matches or so to play is 16 points.

Tonight, playing in a back-three alongside Fernandinho and Nicolas Otamendi, he&#8217;d last 78 minutes and during that stretch Laporte eased himself in winning headers, making a vital interception and pulling off two blocks. More importantly for Guardiola, he&#8217;d touch the ball 89 times, a tally only beaten by Fernandinho (103).<\/p>\n<h4><strong>The rest of tonight&#8217;s Premier League action:<\/strong><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Aston Villa 2-1 Watford<\/strong>, saw\u00a0Ezri Konsa score his first Premier League to win the game for Villa in the 95th minute.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bournemouth 3-1 Brighton<\/strong>, in which Callum Wilson ended a run of 1,319 minutes without a Premier League.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Crystal Palace 0-2 Southampton<\/strong>, saw\u00a0Nathan Redmond&#8217;s score the first goal outside the box in a Palace game this season.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Everton 2-2 Newcastle<\/strong>, in which\u00a0Florian Lejeune rescued a point for the visitors after scoring twice in 102 seconds after the 90th minute.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chelsea 2-2 Arsenal<\/strong>, saw\u00a0Martinelli become the first teenager to score 10 goals for Arsenal in all competitions since Nicolas Anekla (1998\/99).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Manchester City were once again grateful to Sergio Aguero as they ran out narrow 1-0 winners at Sheffield United.
