Arsenal manager, Mikel Arteta, is refusing to get carried away after his side opened a seven-point gap at the summit of the Premier League.
The Gunners pulled off a narrow 1-0 victory over Brighton, while Manchester City were held to a 2-2 draw by Nottingham Forest at the Etihad.
Bukayo Saka, who was the captain for Arsenal at the Amex, scored what proved to be the winner early in the first half.
“This was a really difficult one after everything we’ve been through in the last few weeks,” Arteta told TNT Sports.
“Every game in the Premier League offers you different things. Big credit to the boys because the effort they put in is astronomical.
On the seven-point gap between Arsenal and City, Arteta said: “We did what we had to do and that is what we will continue to do.”
