Aaron Ramsdale has challenged his wounded Arsenal team-mates to use Manchester City and Liverpool as a yardstick when setting their sights on future Premier League success.
Having topped the table for large parts of this season, the Gunners relinquished any control on the title race when they were swept aside by City at the Etihad Stadium on Wednesday night. Belgium sensation Kevin De Bruyne led the way with two goals in that resounding 4-1 verdict.
As a result, Arsenal still lead the way from City and everyone else behind them. However, their advantage is now only two points - while the reigning champions also have two games in hand still to play.
