Man City: Arsenal, Guardiola’s grandfather

After a subpar showing, Manchester City masterfully secured a win against Arsenal (2-1) this Saturday during their pivotal Premier League match. To be frank, City’s manager, Pep Guardiola, conceded that Arsenal deserved a better outcome.

“Kudos to Arsenal; they outplayed us. We faced a squad that’s battled for a Premier League top 4 spot in recent seasons, beginning the current campaign rather weakly. Now, they’re among the best four,” the Spaniard lauded to reporters. “In football, we overanalyze, but ultimately, it’s a matter of luck. Winning at the Emirates against such a formidable Arsenal team, especially in their current form, is huge. Right now, we’re mentally and physically drained, and they were superior. But that’s the beautiful unpredictability of football.”

Undeterred, the reigning champions and current leaders hold an impressive 11-point advantage over Chelsea (with a game in hand) and a 12-point lead over Liverpool (with two games less), their closest competitors, who clash on Sunday.
