Collymore's column: Pep's clarion call, Michael Oliver got it wrong and more
Briefly

Rodri's absence should not affect Manchester City. Pep Guardiola will focus on collective strength, insisting that one player's injury doesn't dictate a team's success.
Despite Rodri's injury, City can still achieve success. Players like John Stones and Matheus Nunes need to step up, indicating depth in the squad that can manage adversity.
Rodri's injury may level the playing field, enabling Arsenal, Liverpool, Spurs, and Villa to challenge City. Guardiola's message will be one of resilience and confidence.
Michael Oliver made mistakes during the City vs Arsenal match. Referees should await players' realignment before making calls, emphasizing the importance of control in officiating.
