Manchester City struggled to get to grips with Arsenal's attempts to slow the game down at the Etihad and were held to a goalless draw.
Pep Guardiola was happy with Anthony Taylor keeping his cards in his pocket after Arsenal managed to frustrate Manchester City during their goalless draw at the Etihad.
Despite that high count, Taylor showed only two yellow cards and neither was for a foul. Gabriel Jesus was booked for holding on to the ball after a free-kick was awarded and David Raya for time wasting.ALSO READ: City's curious record leaves them relying on others in title race "It’s not my job.
