Premier League: 10 talking points from the weekend's action
Is there a possible straw for Manchester City rivals to clutch at? Jack Wilshere has an impact off the bench and Riyad Mahrez is treading water at Leicester
Manchester City proved they possess the spirit to match their skills in fighting back from an undeserved half-time deficit to claim this win. Huddersfield Town, who were again impressive, held the lead for 1min54sec – 20% of the total time City have been behind in their seven away games this season. City’s unbeaten record was briefly imperilled by a poor period of play which had Fabian Delph at its heart. The stand-in left-back deserted his berth in an attempt to win a ball that he never got near, allowing Tom Ince a free run into the penalty area, a threatening attack which led to the corner from which the home side took the lead. There is very little that offers hope to City’s opponents at the moment but Delph’s lack of an instinctive sense of where to position himself is the straw to which everyone can – sometimes fruitfully – clutch.
