Mikel Arteta insisted Arsenal will gain no advantage in the Premier League title race after Manchester City were charged with over 100 alleged rule breaches thi s week.
City could face a range of sanctions if found guilty of the charges, from points deductions, being stripped of titles to even relegation. While none of the charges relate to the current season - where City are five points behind Arsenal in the Premier League table - Arsenal boss Arteta was asked how his side could take advantage of any distraction at the Etihad after a rocky week off the pitch.
The Blues lost at Tottenham last weekend, handing Arsenal the opportunity to move eight points clear with a win over Brentford on Saturday, so Arteta was keen for his side to show their title credentials on the pitch rather than rely on anything City may or may not do.
