Arsenal press conference LIVE: Mikel Arteta on Man City defeat, title race, Eze sub and more

Mikel Arteta faced the media after his Arsenal side were beaten at the Etihad Stadium in the Premier Legaue by Manchester City.

The opening stages did not disappoint the billing with a goal for each side inside the opening twenty minutes of the game. Rayan Cherki with the opener after some fancy footwork, before Kai Havertz’s hard work forced Gianluigi Donnarumma into a big mistake.

Erling Haaland would give the home side the lead, getting the better of Gabriel Magalhaes in the box to curl one past David Raya. This will come as a big blow and leaves the title race on a knife-edge.
