Two Arsenal players tipped to take Mikel Arteta's side to next level amid Man City battle

Former Chelsea midfielder Geremi believes Gabriel Jesus and Oleksandr Zinchenko have key roles to play on and off the pitch in the Premier League title run-in.

The Gunners currently sit four points clear of Manchester City at the top of the table, but have played a game more and have shown signs of wilting in recent weeks after squandering two-goal leads at Liverpool and West Ham. Mikel Arteta has one of the youngest squads in the division at his disposal and therefore experience of late season title run-ins is limited.

However, two players of which that cannot be said of are Jesus and Zinchenko, who both won four titles at City prior to their moves to the Emirates last summer. It is already clear that the former City duo have helped breed an improved winning mentality at the club and that will be required even more so in the coming weeks.
