Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has admitted his players watched Manchester City's 2-1 home defeat by Brentford on the bus en route to Wolves on Saturday afternoon.
The Gunners had a tricky test at Molineux awaiting them on Saturday night, but before then the squad watched Pep Guardiola's side succumb to a shock defeat on their own patch at the hands of the Bees. Two Ivan Toney goals on either side of Phil Foden's first-half rocket were enough to inflict a second defeat of the season on City.
Toney's second goal came deep into second-half stoppage time and Arteta conceded it sparked quite the reaction from his players. Pressed for comment on what his side thought of Brentford's 97th-minute winner, the Arsenal boss simply replied: "You can imagine."
