Agree with that. I wasn't trying to justify it, it's just why I thought he was out there. Completely off topic but it was nice to see Guardiola look for Arter again at the final whistle. Good to see the reception the Man City fans gave Peltier too as he was wheeled past them, Ederson clapped him off too but he was probably just looking for a chance to warm his hands up.
