I'd expect that to continue as Chelsea's struggles make the price you can get here quite attractive. We're looking for juice the next couple of days.

Haaland then also got free in the box to give City a two-goal advantage and put the contest to bed. Gabriel and Saliba have proven to be an excellent partnership but squad depth and options in certain positions now allows Arteta to mix things up if it's not going to plan.
