The side that played Man City only had 4 or 5 attacks all game

You aren't going to win too many games doing that (we could have played that game ten times over with exactly the same high standard of performance and not won any of them). Also the tactics that day of letting them have it wide and put in lots of crosses would be hopeless against a side with a big striker like Wesley up front. Magnificent though that game was it was a freakish one-off for several reasons and not remotely a blueprint for the rest of the season.
