(2) Manchester City's Attacking Prowess:

The Cityzens attacking prowess is their strength whenever they play against any team. The game against Spurs was not different as they attacked the defence of the London team like bees after going down in the first five minutes.

(3) Son and Kane:

The attacking players have been key in Spurs' season in the past and the duo will have to be at their absolute best for Tottenham to get their desire for finishing in the top four at the end of the season. Son showed what he is capable of doing when he created an assist for Spurs first goal. The South Korean also created an assist for Kane to score the second goal.

(4) Spurs Defensive Discipline:

If Tottenham wants to get into the top four then they have to be disciplined in their defence. The London club showed their ability to hold down teams in the game against Manchester City, as they were able to stop City runners from getting behind their backline.

(5) The Premier League Title Race is Open:

Manchester City dropped three points against Spurs which have thrown the title race all open. The Cityzens are six points ahead of Liverpool. The Reds have a game in hand against Leeds, a win for Liverpool on Wednesday, February 23rd, 2022 will reduce the gap to just three points.
