I don’t think many people would have seen that one coming tonight.<\/p>\n

Forest have only won four away games all season.<\/p>\n

A lot has been said about Manchester City, we all expect them to go on that run and they have the home game against Arsenal which is being held up as the pivotal game.<\/p>\n

Actually they are not the City of old. We have seen that, we know there are chinks in their armour. They were on a great run, have an especially impressive home record, and you would have genuinely expected them to pick up the points.<\/p>\n

Three or four weeks ago I was in the City camp for the title race, thinking Pep thrives at this moment of the season, he enjoys it, and his teams seem to kick on.<\/p>\n

Both of them are competing in four competitions so there will still be twists and turns, but from an Arsenal point of view there are always questions as they haven’t got it over the line and done it for so long. That finger will always be pointed and that question asked until they do it.<\/p>\n

But, the questions they are being asked they are answering. Manchester City are stumbling at times.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"‘They are not the Man City of old’published at 10:52 GMT 10:52 GMT Paul RobinsonFormer England goalkeeper on…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":458797,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[218,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-458796","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-football","tag-football","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/458796","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=458796"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/458796\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/458797"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=458796"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=458796"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=458796"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
