Mikel feels we're better equipped to take on City

Just like last year, we're heading to Manchester City for a pivotal clash in the Premier League title race, but Mikel Arteta feels that this time around we are in a much better place to claim a huge win.

In April 2023 we travelled to the Etihad Stadium also top of the league, but at a very different ebb. We had lost to City twice in the preceding months, and were still reeling from three successive draws against Liverpool, West Ham United and Southampton to allow our rivals back into contention. That night, City seized the opportunity to claim a 4-1 victory that set them on their way to the championship.
