Next up...

By Lewis Browning

We've shown you what's left for each team - now let's show you what's next.

City travel to Burnley in midweek where they will go level with Arsenal at least in terms of games played. To be honest, you have to assume it will be on points too.

Then, when City have their weekend off from league action for an FA Cup semi-final, Arsenal will be tackling Newcastle at home. Another tough one, to be fair.

Whose camp would you rather be in?

Neville: 'City have reached a level we didn't think they were capable of'

By Lewis Browning

Gary Neville, former Manchester United defender, Sky Sports:

I'm not sure Pep Guardiola would've thought in November or December that he had a team capable of winning the league this season. Khusanov hadn't emerged, Guehi wasn't at the club, neither was Semenyo, O'Reilly wasn't at the same level.
These four or five players - Cherki, Khusanov, O'Reilly, Guehi - have stepped up a massive level in the next four to six weeks.
You thought 'how is Pep going to build this third championship-winning team?'. They've gone from a vulnerable and immature back four to being one now that can play together in big games.
They've stepped up to a level we maybe didn't think they were capable of in this season or Guardiola even thought he'd be in this position. This is ahead of where they thought they might be.

Rice's rally cry

By Lewis Browning

Declan Rice was arguably Arsenal's standout player today. Him of Havertz, for me.

The Sky cameras caught him on the floor after the game and he was seen issuing a rally cry to Martin Odegaard.

You can find out what he said by clicking below!

Player ratings

By Lewis Browning

We all love rating players. It's part of what makes football, well, football.

Jack Gaughan and Isaan Khan have done just that from the Etihad this afternoon. And you can read it by clicking below.

Pretty fair, I think.

You'll need a Daily Mail+ subscription - but the first month is free, then it's 99p a month. What more can you ask for?!

'Pep's groups have hunger'

Roy Keane, former Man United captain, on Sky Sports:

When we look at Pep in terms of peaking at the right time, they do seem to peak whether it's the training, the days off Pep gives them, his experience. It helps when you recruit in January and can bring a couple of top players in, it helps the group.
But what I like about Pep and this group is the hunger. All of their trophies and previous success, we saw today how much they wanted that win. They rode their luck a little bit, but they're peaking at the right time.

Were Arsenal unlucky?

On another day, Arsenal may have come away with all three points.

They hit the post twice in the second half through Eberechi Eze and Gabriel; it was agonising.

It's the first time that Arsenal have hit the woodwork twice in a Premier League game they failed to win for the first time since April 2022, in a 2-1 defeat to Brighton and Hove Albion.

'Arsenal can't break free of City'
There is an old film, released just before the Second World War, called The Four Feathers. It is a story about cowardice and redemption. It follows a soldier who is given the four feathers by his friends because of his refusal to serve and who returns each one of them through acts of daring and courage.
The Arsenal manager, Mikel Arteta, came to this title showdown with the equivalent of the four feathers, desperate to hand them back, desperate to ram the taunts of all those who had accused him and his team of being bottlers and chokers back down their throats by beating their title rivals.
This game was about the might of Manchester City and the psychological power they hold over Arsenal. It was about the psychological power that Pep Guardiola holds over his old apprentice, Arteta, as well. It was about Arsenal’s attempts to break free of those bonds. It was, most of all, about Arsenal’s attempts to break free of the identity that has been foisted upon them.
They could not do it. They came desperately close. They fought back from behind once. They hit the post twice. Kai Havertz missed a glorious late, late chance to score an equaliser that would have given them the point they needed to retain the advantage in the title race. Misses like that cost teams titles.

Haaland: 'Every game is a final'

Erling Haaland, Manchester City matchwinner, on Sky Sports:

I was quite happy, I have to be honest. It was a great moment for me and a great win.

On Bernardo Silva:

I remember that cross, when he headed it out, I told him he was like Cannavaro today. I'm not going to make it emotional but Bernie, you were really good as usual.

On the title race:

I think every game is a final. On Wednesday we have a new final. When we are done speaking here, it's about recovering and preparing for Burnley. That is as important as this one and Chelsea before.

Guardiola loves the chase

Pep Guardiola just loves hunting down rivals.

Throughout his managerial career, Guardiola has led his teams to seven wins from eight games when facing the league leaders with his team second in the table.

He has won all four in the Premier League, the joint-most such victories a manager boasts in the competition (level with Alex Ferguson).

The man loves a little chase.

HIGHLIGHTS: Man City 2-1 Arsenal

Arsenal fans, I don't reckon this post for you...

For everyone who doesn't like them, though, including Manchester City fans, you can now enjoy the highlights.

It's a very entertaining watch, unless you're a Gunner.

'I'd rather read a book than face Gabriel and Saliba'
Both managers have had their press conferences. Guardiola, as is his custom in victory, was relatively circumspect. Quote of the day, when he was asked about the battle Haaland had with Gabriel and William Saliba: 'I'm glad that was not me up against those two. I'd rather read a book.'
