"It was a tough week and we have to give a great compliment to all the players and the staff. "The key was the capacity to suffer when City has the ball. Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher added: "We're waiting for City to kick into the City we know so well and this might be the season where they are not themselves, for lots of different reasons," he said. "We knew very well that in that game (at City) we lost our key - our capacity to suffer. "To reach our target, we have to suffer more, to fight. Evolution is key to keeping a team at the top of the footballing food chain. The balance of the side was off and the decision to play Julian Alvarez up top with Erling Haaland at De Bruyne's expense left big holes in City's midfield. Man City failed to find their groove in the second half and Kevin De Bruyne came on as the game became stretched. Spurs were roared on by the home crowd after going ahead and continued to cause City problems with Kane coming close to doubling their lead at a set-piece. It was a landmark goal for the 29-year-old as he became Spurs' record scorer on 267 and the quickest player to 200 Premier League goals. That feeling appeared to be felt by the City players, too. Man City dominated possession in the early stages but looked vulnerable to the counter-attack.

Tottenham Hotspur Stadium remains a house of horrors for Pep Guardiola and Manchester City following Spurs 1-0 win on Sunday,

Bournemouth shows hope but Brighton’s got too much class (Brighton 1-0 AFC Bournemouth): Kaoru Mitoma certainly looks to be comfortable in the Premier League, and who needs a 20-yard banger or intra-box juggle-and fire every week? These crosses and the chaos they cause before, during, and after the ball is coming in is also why Brentford are pushing for European qualification. With Brennan Johnson in this kind of form plus other threats on the break, Forest are looking set to stay in the Premier League quite comfortably. Leicester wins thriller at Villa, but the manner don’t matter more than the result (Aston Villa 2-4 Leicester): Leicester overturned not one, but two deficits to put an end to their five-game winless skid and secure a 4-2 victory over Aston Villa at Villa Park on Saturday. Throw in Newcastle only having to worry about one match that isn’t in the Premier League for the rest of the summer, and Spurs’ win over Man City sounded a note for chaos. And excuse the dark humor, but his teammates must’ve missed the memo on smashing the transfer record; $360 million later, mid-table Chelsea were able to secure a point in a 0-0 draw with European hopefuls Fulham at Stamford Bridge. It is clear the Toffees have the players to drag themselves away from a relegation scrap and also now clear they have a manager who is able to lead them up the table. And they could lose to Man City twice and still have a match-in-hand to make up the point. From this angle and range, the new all-time Tottenham Hotspur goal scorer is not going to miss and Spurs lead at home with his 267th goal in the shirt. City takes the ball back and Jack Grealish and Rico Lewis are bringing electricity to the center of the park. City cannot find Erling Haaland and the xG battle is even at 0.37 even if City has 68 percent of the ball and a 6-2 edge in shots. The lofted in free kick is a bit wayward and seems to carry too much, and the passage ends with a City goal kick.
