Doku Sounds Warning to Arsenal: 'Title Race is On'
Following Manchester City's convincing 3-0 win over Chelsea, Jeremy Doku has issued a warning to league leaders Arsenal, stating that the 'title race is on.' City's victory, combined with Arsenal's loss to Bournemouth, has closed the gap at the top to six points, with City having a game in hand. Doku, who scored his first goal since November, expressed his belief in City's chances, saying, 'I would be crazy if I didn't believe. I believe the race is on.' He also acknowledged the unpredictability of the Premier League, citing Arsenal's unexpected loss. City manager Pep Guardiola also weighed in, recalling the doubts surrounding his team's chances ahead of the Carabao Cup final last month. Since then, City have gone on to defeat Arsenal 2-0, thrash Liverpool 4-0 in the FA Cup, and close the gap at the top of the league. Guardiola expressed his respect for Arsenal, acknowledging the challenge that lies ahead. With City's destiny now in their own hands, they are poised to face Arsenal next weekend in a crucial matchup.
