Arsenal were the big winners in the title race this weekend, claiming victory after Manchester City drew at Liverpool today.
It was of course the perfect result for Arsenal, as they top the table with 64 points, ahead of Liverpool on goal difference and City with just one point.
However, Pep Guardiola was quick to point out after the game how good the Gunners were.
Guardiola praised Arsenal in an interview with Miguel Delaney of The Independent.
“We need 98 minutes to win and Arsenal need 25 minutes to win 3-0,” the Spaniard said.
Arsenal will really want to
There is no doubt that we will now challenge for the title. It has not been this close for a long time and all three of City, Arsenal and Liverpool will believe they can do it.
But Arsenal must now want to take their chances. The Gunners are in great form and they win both by huge margins and with a win like the one they achieved yesterday.
Whoever wins this season will feel that they have truly earned it.
- Arsenal will be happy to be at the top, but now they face a different pressure. If they can handle that pressure, they might be able to get over the line.
