Former Manchester United defender, Gary Neville, has said that Manchester City’s 1-0 win at Burnley on Wednesday night, is the best result Arsenal could have hoped for.
Erling Haaland scored the only goal in the sixth minute, as City went top of the Premier League table.
Pep Guardiola’s men are only ahead of Arsenal on goals scored.
“It’s a win for Manchester City. But it’s the best win Arsenal could have hoped for. One nil,” Neville said on Sky Sports.
“It’s all to play for. Arsenal have a home game against Newcastle on Saturday where they can reassert their three-point lead.
“It didn’t happen for Manchester City tonight. They will have to play better than that or they will drop points.
“But Pep Guardiola knows he had to come away with three points. And he’s done that.”
