Man City boss Pep Guardiola praises Arsenal with huge 'better' claim amid title challenge

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola claims that Arsenal have been the "better" side so far this season, despite his team's early Premier League form. It comes as the Gunners sit top of the division, winning seven of their eight games played so far in a quick start to the campaign.

It has led to many suggesting that Mikel Arteta's men could be competing for the title this season, with other sides making a much slower start. The Spaniard has been much coyer on those chances, though, claiming his side have done nothing but make a quick start so far.

"I'll leave that [title talk] to you guys, honestly," Arteta said after the victory over Tottenham in the North London Derby. "We are just at the start, and we are really happy with where we are and understand that you cannot control [everything]. Because emotion is related, and the table says what it says, but it is not something that we look at."
