Doku Sounds Warning to Arsenal: 'Title Race Is On'

Manchester City's Jeremy Doku has issued a warning to Premier League leaders Arsenal, stating that the 'title race is on' ahead of their highly anticipated matchup at the Etihad next weekend. Following City's convincing 3-0 victory over Chelsea, Doku expressed his confidence in his team's chances, emphasizing that their destiny is now in their own hands. With City moving six points off the top and having a game in hand, the stage is set for a thrilling encounter against the Gunners. Doku, who scored his first goal since November, believes that a win against Arsenal would be a significant statement, while a loss would put the pressure back on City. Meanwhile, manager Pep Guardiola reflected on the lack of faith in his team's chances ahead of the Carabao Cup final, where City ultimately emerged victorious against Arsenal. Guardiola acknowledged the respect he has for Arsenal, recognizing the quality and competitiveness of the team, but expressed his confidence in City's growing strength and preparedness for the upcoming challenge.
