Manuel Pellegrini stopped short of naming names but he was definitely pointing fingers at the team’s defenders after the game against City. Maybe he didn’t need to call anybody out publicly because that clearly happened at half time when Arthur Masuaku was subbed for Aaron Cresswell. The manager was obviously in no mood to stomach […]
