They didn't, I have watched a bit of City this season and at their best they are a joy to behold, they never got out of second gear today and that had nothing to do with us stifling them.
We were a mess today from the first to the last minute, we can't even pass these days and that is saying something. We literally launched long balls up to Auba hoping for the best.
I'm not going to bother watching the game on Thursday, there is literally no point.
Just watched Wenger's post match comments, he's truly nuts and in complete denial IMO. What game was he watching? They controlled us from start to finish and didn't even play that well...it saddens me that Wenger can't just be honest and upfront and admit we were second best. All this unlucky offside hogwash is just nonsense and deflects away from the REAL issues.

Arsene Wenger was left to rue two crucial moments in our Carabao Cup final defeat to Manchester City at Wembley.
The first was the early chance we missed when Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was tackled just a few yards from goal, and the second was when Vincent Kompany doubled City's advantage.
"I felt we were unlucky to be 1-0 down at half time, we made a defensive mistake and missed an unbelievable chance at 0-0 so it was frustrating," the Arsenal manager told Arsenal Player.
"In these types of games, playing against a side of that calibre, to be 1-0 down is difficult. When we came out, we didn't start the second half well and were a bit unlucky because for me the second goal was 100 per cent offside and then it was difficult. We tried to come back, to change the system, but it was very difficult.
"[The second goal] was a changing point in the game and after that they were in control. They were nervous in the first half and overall I think the second goal played a big part in the final result.
"We had the chances and I am very disappointed but it made me think about playing Barcelona in Paris [in 2006] when we missed the chance in the first half. Against a team of that quality it is important to take your chances straight away."
Same common denominator whatever the year, and whatever squad there is. Wenger has destroyed Arsenal, and is being ably assisted by silent Stan the c&*t. Not annoyed anymore, as I am expecting the worst with this club.
Too many fans are now saying they can't be bothered to be angry about the situation at Arsenal any more. Music to the ears of the cunts running the club into the ground. You have to really, really not give one flying fuck about what the fans think if you manage to break through the fury barrier and into the warm embrace of sheer disinterest. Mission accomplished. They've stuck two fingers up at the fans, told us to mind our own business and promptly got on with shovelling cash into their pockets. That's Wenger's legacy now, he stole, lied, cheated and slimed his way to 9 figures all for the bargain price of one football club and the suckers who follow it through thick, thin and the harsh, devoid, barren wasteland that is Wengerworld. He'll be an eternal figure of hate by the time he's finished leeching and fucks off, and deservedly so.
Legacy? What legacy? Gone. Over a decade of taking the absolute piss used up and burned away any goodwill. You can't even thank him for the receding memories because the recurring nightmares are too fresh and vivid.
