Man City comparisons 'disrespectful' as Arsenal return top of Premier League after win vs Forest

Arsenal and Manchester City are battling it out at the top of the Premier League as Mikel Arteta goes toe-to-toe with Pep Guardiola.

The Gunners have dropped just five points in the Premier League so far this season after suffering a defeat against Manchester United and drawing against Southampton. Arteta's side remains unbeaten at the Emirates Stadium in all competitions, with Arsenal turning their home back into a fortress as teams now fear heading to north London.

Man City remains just two points behind the Gunners despite their impressive campaign so far as Guardiola's side aim to retain their Premier League title and lift the trophy for a fifth time in six seasons. Liverpool have been City's main competitor domestically over the past five years, but Arsenal looks to have replaced Jurgen Klopp's side as their main challenger this season.
