MANCHESTER CITY suffered their first disappointing result since Saturday on another painful afternoon for Pep Guardiola.
The Premier League champions at least arrested a slide of three straight defeats to take a point from this mediocre clash.
But when gaining a draw is viewed as some sort of positive, it shows just how far the might of Manchester have fallen.
Because it's now blindingly obvious City have forgotten how to win matches.
Guardiola's flops took the lead through Bernardo Silva and should have gone ahead again despite Iliman Ndiaye's superb equaliser.
But Erling Haaland, of all people, missed a second-half penalty to leave City nursing a remarkable run of just one win in the last 13 games.
During this time there has been Halloween, Bonfire Night and now Christmas.
