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. This comes after City's convincing 3-0 win over Chelsea, which saw them move six points behind Arsenal with 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 acknowledged the unpredictability of the Premier League, citing Arsenal's unexpected loss to Bournemouth. City's manager, Pep Guardiola, also shared his thoughts, recalling how his team was underestimated ahead of the Carabao Cup final last month. Since then, City have beaten Arsenal 2-0, thrashed Liverpool 4-0 in the FA Cup, and narrowed the gap at the top of the league. Guardiola expressed his respect for Arsenal, recognizing the challenge that lies ahead. With City's newfound momentum and Arsenal's recent slip-up, the stage is set for a thrilling encounter next weekend.
