The suspensions for Fernandinho and Sergio Aguero are going to seriously hamper City, but they are good news for Arsenal.

Brazilian international Fernandinho is one of the most underrated midfielders in the division, and it’s no surprise that City player better and control more games when he is in the side, while Aguero’s scoring prowess in England is clear for everyone to see.

Take those two out, arguably half of the spine of the City side, and you are left with the likes of Fernando and Kelechi Iheanacho in their place and, although both are capable to fill in, neither are as good as their suspended teammates.

Wenger likely won’t be focusing too much on the City side, but deep down he must be pleased that the names of Fernandinho and Aguero will not appear on the team sheet.
