Aston Villa’s second-half performance in a 2-1 defeat was similarly confrontational, and had Carney Chukwuemeka scored his one-on-one, critics would have rightly pointed to an alarming collapse under pressure. This City team is not invincible. They can be spooked.
It was a missed opportunity which came back to haunt the visitors when Tomas Soucek diverted home Manuel Lanzini’s free-kick, which was ultimately enough to give the east Londoners a point.

It's a real privilege to have him as a team-mate and compatriot. They hadn't really done anything in order to collect the three points.
He was OK, fortunately. The police officers who came to the scene wanted to know where all the meat came from. I just told them: 'Scornicesti.' No further questions. They just went to the car to check if there was something left for them to take home too.
In the 63rd minute midfielder Billy Gilmour fired a shot from 20 yards past the post but at the other end, Faroe Islands captain Hallur Hansson came closer with a better-struck shot.
Everybody gets along with him here, everyone likes to have him around. I like to see it season by season.

But - perhaps unsurprisingly for a player who has two Premier League goals since the start of last season - Ayew sliced his effort high and wide.
He was eventually brought off late on before City eventually crashed out on penalties. He was there as always.
That's the key. When the European Super League came up, Arteta came out and said what a nice man the owner is.
That's a mentality situation so we must continue to work with players to make sure we avoid this happening again.
Since Ralph Hasenhuttl took over in December 2018, Southampton have lost 73 points from winning positions - 17 more than any other side - but his side nearly doubled their lead when Elyounoussi's slaloming run drew a smart save from Fabianksi.
Klopp's leadership and management, adored by the Kop and a source of inspiration to his players, means this four-trophy haul comes closer into view with every victory.
Canada stay top of qualifying after remaining unbeaten in their first 10 games, plus six wins out of six in previous rounds.
Raheem Sterling - 6 Not exactly dazzling but after his late-season slump in form for Manchester City, looks far more like his old self this summer.
The 2022 World Cup will be held during the winter in Qatar, the first time that the competition will not be staged during the summer months.
He collapsed to the floor clutching his legs and was surrounded by concerned team-mates. Yet another reason to add to the list of reasons to sack off fireworks, he added.
It felt like reverting to type a little bit after we conceded, and I want to change that. The 24-year-old's attacking performance was superb.

Newcastle United are also odds-on to slip back down to the Championship with the Magpies priced at 4/7. It remains to be seen how the club’s new-found riches will affect their actions in the transfer market, but Eddie Howe’s men have been conceding goals at an alarming rate. The euphoria from the fans at the departure of owner Mike Ashley has been replaced with a realisation that the current squad may not be strong enough to survive, and manager Howe knows he has a real job on his hands.
So much focus is always going to be on Bale and Aaron Ramsey, but the performances of Wales back four si far has been not bad at all.
The 37-year-old's body language after bad results has been called into question too, with it suggested that his negative attitude is rubbing off on the rest of the squad, but Shearer has jumped to his defence.
We would work in partnership with them to facilitate the revival of the club, said council leader Chris Poulter.
Marseille's Boubacar Kamara and Wolves' Ruben Neves are two of a number of players Manchester United have been looking at in their search for a new midfielder.
The days of Lemar being a peripheral figure at Atletico Madrid are long gone. This performance demonstrated everything that the Frenchman gives to the Spanish champions. He pushed Atleti forward with his use of the ball, made late runs into the box to help Griezmann and Suarez and even scored his first headed goal in La Liga. Increasingly, it feels like Simeone is building his Atletico Madrid team around Lemar.

They have been re-tested and re-joined the group now. Carsley has named Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi as the Young Lions' new skipper.
The objective when we started this tournament was to get enough points to get out of the group stage and into the knockout stage for the first time and we still have that in front of us, Clarke added.
Most of us have it already. Now at Christmas time there is a tendency to organise parties, to go out, do something extra.
Coutinho wanted to return to England and play regular football and sees Villa as an ambitious club that are building something special for the future.
It was important for us to agree a new contract with Christian because we want to keep players like him at the club, he said.
As part of the programme, Sterling's mum Nadine spoke about his upbringing - and her pride for her son's dream come true.
At the time, I thought it was a good strong tackle, he told BBC Sport. Maybe it looks a little worse when you slow it down. That's what VAR is there for [to make the right decision].
