JACK GAUGHAN AT THE ETIHAD: Rayan Cherki raced back to halfway. He'd just given former Manchester City academy graduate Daniel Grimshaw the eyes‚ a second home goal of the evening‚ and then compelled to get the tie restarted as quickly as possible. Clearly‚ Cherki wanted more goals. More opportunity to make up for the lost half at Old Trafford last weekend‚ when he was withdrawn at the break owing to Phil Foden's red card. More opportunity to have some fun. Maybe to prove a point‚ if such things are possible on a straightforward Thursday night against Championship opposition‚ although Maresca visibly sighed at some flicks. Fortunately for Mathias Kvistgaarden‚ his wits were very much about him by the time Cherki had made it back to the centre circle‚ hurling the ball in the Dane's direction. With impressively quick hands‚ Kvistgaarden just about stopped it from bursting through his fingers.

Former Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino has fervently argued that Spurs should be retrospectively crowned Premier League champions because of Chelsea's 'illegal' activity in the transfer market - and the numbers suggest he may well have a point. Chelsea pipped Spurs to the Premier League title under Antonio Conte in 2017‚ finishing the season on 93 points - seven clear of Tottenham's 86 - but have since admitted to breaking the rules by making more than £47million in secret payments to unregistered agents and third parties to facilitate transfers. The Blues were handed a record £10.75m fine for the breaches‚ a sanction regarded by many football fans as little more than a slap on the wrist given what Chelsea went on to achieve with the team they had assembled.
