MAN CITY SHOW CHARACTER AS RODRI SEES RED
For once, the usually ball-dominant City were forced onto the back foot as their players abandoned pretty passing triangles for hard running. It was a reward for the kind of brave and progressive football that Postecoglou has instilled within the camp after the often sterile tactics employed by his predecessors Jose Mourinho and Antonio Conte.
He had a goal ruled out, defended with calm assurance and it was his quarter-back style pass that allowed Bruno Fernandes to volley the winner in a 1-0 victory at Burnley. Jimenez was unconvincing in the draw with Palace, twice failing to score from promising positions, while Willian and Andreas Pereira also spurned opportunities, leading to Fulham dropping points in a match they should have won.Last season, all three promoted clubs -- Fulham, Bournemouth and Nottingham Forest -- stayed up. But early results this season point to a campaign of struggles and possibly relegation for Burnley, Sheffield United and Luton Town.
