Man City boss Pep Guardiola told how he's helped Mikel Arteta and Arsenal in title race

Danny Murphy believes the time spent working with Pep Guardiola will provide Mikel Arteta with the experience to manage a title-run in at Arsenal.

Arteta is set to battle with his former mentor for the Premier League title, with the Gunners currently eight points clear of Man City after both won on Saturday. The Blues cruised past Liverpool with a 4-1 win at lunchtime, before Arsenal matched that scoreline at home to Leeds United a couple of hours later.

Arsenal's lack of title experience has often been cited this season, with Arteta still early in his managerial career. But after having spent three seasons as Guardiola's assistant at City between 2016 and 2019, Murphy believes the Gunners chief will have taken valuable lessons to the Emirates.
