Doku Sounds Warning to Arsenal: 'Title Race is On' Ahead of Etihad Showdown

Following Manchester City's 3-0 victory over Chelsea, Jeremy Doku has sent a strong message to league leaders Arsenal, stating that the title race is now underway. With City moving six points behind Arsenal and having a game in hand, Doku expressed his belief in his team's chances, citing their destiny as now being in their own control. Doku, who scored his first goal since November, emphasized the importance of the upcoming match against Arsenal, warning that if City wins, it will be a significant blow to the Gunners. Meanwhile, Pep Guardiola reflected on the lack of faith in City's chances before the Carabao Cup final, where they defeated Arsenal 2-0, and acknowledged the respect he has for the Gunners, recognizing the challenge they pose. Guardiola also highlighted City's growth and freshness, given their exit from the Champions League, and expressed his confidence in his team's ability to perform.
