The Carabao Cup is City’s!

Just got back from the Bottle Job Festival.
Arsenal were the headliners 😂

Arsenal fundamentally lack goal scorers in open play. Yes they’re excellent from set pieces.. but if a team can cut that off they’re pretty limited. Who’s even their top goal scorer this year? #CarabaoCupFinal #MCIARS
Part of me likes to think that the FA are prolonging the Rodri punishment so that he is banned for either the Carabao Cup final or our showdown with them at the Etihad.
Of course none of that is true and I’m a rambling idiot 🤷♂️🤣
But maybe it’ll happen that way.

#OTD in 2019, Sergio Aguero's 14th hat-trick for Manchester City closed the gap on Premier League leaders Liverpool to only two points after victory over Arsenal at Etihad.

Oliver again gave a second yellow to Trossard in #MCIARS for the exact same time-wasting kick to the ball.
There is no consistency even when the referee is the same.
Unless benefitting Manchester City falls into the "consistency" category, but that would be a conspiracy theory, wouldn't it?
#OTD in 2011, Manchester City return to the top of the Premier League after a brief hiatus as they beat Arsenal in an absorbing game.

#PremierLeague #MCIARS | December 18, 2016
5 games in and that's already it for Arsenal's title challenge. Shows how much of a surprise their Champions League triumph was with that squad. #MCIARS #BarclaysWSL
Frustrating defeat! Can’t stress this enough about taking our chances. Blackenstinus need to be doing better & our defence has to be stronger in duels. #MCIARS #BarclaysWSL I hope we can recover for the Lyon game! We are missing that extra energy and killer attitude in the 3rd phase #Arsenal
