After Arsenal were defeated by Newcastle in the early Premier League kick-off, it was over to Manchester City to hammer home their advantage.

Yet Pep Guardiola’s side found themselves 1-0 down after just eight minutes, as Antoine Semenyo’s smart turn and finish put the home side ahead.

It’s not the first time that Man City have found themselves having to come back from a goal behind this season, and in fact their defence has been far from solid recently.

The reigning champions have failed to keep a clean sheet in eight Premier League games this season, with only Southampton, Wolves and Brentford having conceded in more games.

Can City mount another comeback on the south coast?
