Arsenal said the ‘stumbling block’ could yet cost Manchester City the Premier League title

There may be hope in the Premier League title race for Arsenal, however, says a jittery Shay Given despite Manchester City’s comfortable win at Fulham.

Pep Guardiola’s men travel to the capital for a Saturday lunchtime meeting with Marco Silva’s Fulham – one they won 4-0. After a month of back-and-forth, he finally brought City level in the games played against the Gunners, although not with the result that Mikel Arteta and Co. they hoped for it.

City went top with the win, two points ahead of Arsenal. They also managed to reduce the goal difference between the two rivals from six to just two.

The Gunners have a chance to respond in their penultimate game of the season at Old Trafford, but then Guardiola’s men have Tuesday night’s official game in hand against Tottenham – all set for a potential final day decider for the Premier League trophy destination . .

Arsenal could win both of their remaining games, but it would mean nothing if City did the same. The latter have come out on top in this scenario many times, but obviously there are still nerves for those connected to the club.

“They’ve had three cup finals before today, now after today it’s two cup finals, of course,” former Etihad Stadium player Given told Premier League Productions. “Tottenham, for me, is still a big stumbling block.

“I know they’ve lost their last four but it’s still a big question mark because City don’t have a great record at Tottenham. I know (they’ve won there in the FA Cup this season) but it was one goal, that was a mistake (Guglielmo) Vicario and it was not convincing.

“It wasn’t the Man City we know and for some reason, in some games, in some stadiums, you always struggle there for some reason. That stadium is White Hart Lane, or whatever it’s called now.”

The interesting facet of Given’s point is that if Spurs were to pick up points on Tuesday, it would be to the benefit of their arch-rivals.
