Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has rejected the idea that Wednesday night’s clash with Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium will decide the Premier League title.
The Gunners have led the league for most of the season, having established themselves as serious title contenders for the first time since the 2007/08 campaign. But three successive draws against Liverpool, West Ham and Southampton have opened the door for City.
Arsenal had led 2-0 against both Liverpool and West Ham, before allowing their opponents back into those games. A 3-3 tie with Southampton last Friday was then the result of a late Gunners comeback after initially unthinkably going 3-1 down at home against the league’s bottom club.
