City can go within two points of leaders Arsenal if they beat Fulham at Craven Cottage on Tuesday night but head there with Donnarumma on a disciplinary tightrope. The 26-year-old could become the first goalkeeper in Premier League history to receive a suspension for accumulating five yellow cards before the count is reset during the first week of January.
JACK GAUGHAN AT ETIHAD STADIUM: Leeds United manager Daniel Farke wants laws changing to stop tactical timeouts and avoid 'fake' injuries to goalkeepers after their last-gasp defeat at Manchester City. City's Gianluigi Donnarumma was under instruction from Ruben Dias to fall down just before the hour mark as Leeds pressed for an equaliser. Pep Guardiola then gathered his players together for a team talk pitchside in scenes that have become more prevalent across the Premier League.
The City boss‚ 54‚ cut an irate figure after watching his side fall to a 2-1 Premier League defeat at St James' Park thanks to a second-half brace from Harvey Barnes. It was match marred by controversy‚ with City furious that they were not awarded a penalty when Phil Foden was on the receiving end of a heavy tackle by Fabian Schar. There were also question marks over whether Gianluigi Donnarumma had been fouled before Barnes' second goal‚ as well as Guimaraes potentially being offside in the build-up.

The Dutchman thought he had levelled the score for Arne Slot 's men after nodding beyond Gianluigi Donnarumma in the 38th minute‚ but the goal was controversially chalked off. A VAR review ultimately ruled that Andy Robertson - who ducked out of the way of van Dijk's effort - was offside and had interfered with City goalkeeper‚ keeping City in the lead of the tie which they went on to win 3-0. In disagreement with the call‚ which Slot labelled a 'clear and obvious error' on the night‚ Liverpool then contacted PGMOL‚ the refereeing body led by former man in the middle Webb‚ to question the decision. But Webb has tonight backed the call - saying it was 'not unreasonable' for the goal to be disallowed.
Liverpool have complained to referees' chiefs about Virgil van Dijk's disallowed goal at Manchester City on Sunday. The Premier League champions were well beaten and Arne Slot did not blame the decision for his side's defeat. But he was left wondering what might have been if his captain's header‚ which would have made the game 1-1‚ was allowed to stand. Instead it was chalked off after a VAR review due to Andrew Robertson‚ the Liverpool left back‚ being on the line and judged to be interfering with City goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma. The Scotsman was offside and ducked out of the way of Van Dijk's effort.

Senne Lammens says he wants to be a Manchester United goalkeeping great like Peter Schmeichel‚ and joked about the fact the Danish legend didn't know who he was following a £21.7million move from Royal Antwerp. United fans sang 'Are you Schmeichel in disguise?' when Lammens made his debut against Sunderland at Old Trafford earlier this month‚ and the young Belgian has won his first three games between the posts. However‚ Schmeichel admitted he hadn't heard of Lammens‚ and claimed that United should have signed Aston Villa's Emiliano Martinez instead or competed with Manchester City for Gianluigi Donnarumma.
