He continued speaking to the Evening Standard, “They’re gaining valuable experience. The coaching staff and players are finding solutions to different challenges.

Last year, Manchester City dominated Arsenal 4-1 at their home stadium. Almost a year later, a more resilient Gunners side held the reigning champions to a scoreless draw, maintaining their lead in the title race for the first time since 2004.
