Arsenal have been warned that Manchester City can still win the title this season despite missing out on the chance to close to gap to two points on Sunday. Mikel Arteta may have feared that the seemingly inevitable squeeze from his ex-employers would start after the 1-0 loss to Everton on Saturday afternoon.
No such response came though with Pep Guardiola's men only able to fall foul to Tottenham in a 1-0 defeat of their own. It means that things are as they were at the top; a five point gap with a game in hand for Arsenal.
The two sides still have to come face-to-face twice this season though and the outcome of those matches is still in a position by which it could decide the title. City wins could put them within two points of Arsenal - or even above them should Arteta fail to win the game in hand - whilst a set of Arsenal victories would see them streaking clear.
