And I must admit, Tottenham have been brilliant and disciplined in these two matches, and they haven't conceded a single goal. While this is just the beginning, if Tottenham can be consistent, they could pose a threat to other teams.
Tottenham have a solid defense, especially against Manchester City, and goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario was also brilliant, successfully repelling all Manchester City attacks and maintaining a 0-2 scoreline until the end. Both goals came in the first half, and a team of Manchester City's stature should have scored in the second half and even turned the game around. However, their hard work was not rewarded, as Tottenham performed very well overall.
After watching the Man City vs Spurs match, it's safe to conclude that Pep Guardiola new squad remains unstable. The transition from established players to new arrivals was uneven. There was excessive possession, a rush to take long-range shots, and minimal teamwork. In contrast to last season's much improved performance, Pep Guardiola reverted to his old lineup, bringing on Bernardo Silva, Ake, Doku, Foden, and Rodri in the second half. Furthermore Ederson wasn't the starting goalkeeper so it's understandable that Man City lost to Spurs.
