James McAtee was just inches away from giving Manchester City a lead in Saturday’s Community Shield.
Pep Guardiola’s side have been on top in the first half and it was one of their own who almost netted the opener against Manchester United.
It was the brilliant Oscar Bobb who played in McAtee, but his curled effort came back off the far post.
It doesn’t look like it’s going to be too long before the deadlock is broken at Wembley.
