Pep Guardiola believes Manchester City showed the desire they need to fight for the Premier League title in their win at Bournemouth on Saturday.
City were ruthless after two frustrating draws, scoring three times in the first half and adding a four by 50 minutes. Erling Haaland scored his 27th Premier League goal - the most in any season by a City player - while Phil Foden marked his 200th club appearance with a goal and assist.
Speaking after the game, Guardiola said the performance gave him the belief that his squad are ready to fight Arsenal for the title, as he also expressed his happiness at City's response to their travelling fans on the South Coast.
