Former Arsenal defender Martin Keown believes that the north London outfit are "10 years" behind title rivals Manchester City in terms of their project. The Gunners have been leading the way in the title race for the majority of the season, but have seen their grip at the top in recent weeks.
Three consecutive draws saw their control slip into the hands of City, but a head-to-head at the Etihad Stadium handed them a chance to wrestle it back to their favour. That didn't last long in the game though as Kevin De Bruyne opened the scoring just seven minutes in.
John Stones doubled the lead with a header at the back post, with De Bruyne adding a third just after half time. Rob Holding was a surprise scorer to pull one back late on, but Erling Haaland sealed the victory with a finish that ensured the gap closed to just two points at the top.
