Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has said his side are still ‘mathematically’ in the race for the Premier League title, stressing that ‘this is football’.
The Gunners had topped the table for much of the season as they tried to end a 19-year wait to win the title.
But under relentless pressure from City, who have won 11 consecutive league games, the wheels have come off for Arsenal in recent months.
Arteta’s men have now won just two of their last seven games.
