Gary Neville says Arsenal must win at Man City, plus Premier League 'title deciders' that did prove crucial

Gary Neville says Arsenal must win away to Manchester City this weekend to take charge of this season's title race.

Mikel Arteta takes his Gunners side to the Etihad Stadium on Sunday searching for his first victory at the ground since leaving Pep Guardiola's coaching team for north London in 2019.

Winning at the Etihad is one of the challenges the Spaniard is yet to achieve in his time as Arsenal boss, losing on all four of his Premier League visits so far.

A win would take Arsenal four points clear of their opponents and keep them top of the table. Meanwhile, a defeat would see City move two points clear of the Gunners, who would potentially drop to third depending on Liverpool's result at home to Brighton earlier on Sunday.

Ahead of another crucial game in the title race, Neville says that Arsenal must win away to City, not just to boost their chances of a first league title in 20 years, but because of the positive impact it would have on the team's mentality going into the final games of the season.

"The reason I believe Arsenal need to go to Manchester City and win is because Arsenal have to go to other grounds - Old Trafford, Tottenham. To really change the psyche of this Manchester City team, you've got to damage them yourself and make them believe you're better than them," he said on the Gary Neville Podcast.

"We used to feel we'd be champions every year so when Arsenal came to Old Trafford in '98 when Overmars scored, or in the early 2000s when Wiltord scored, it shook us to the ground and we were stunned.

"They've got to leave as winners. That's not to say a draw is not a respectable result at the Etihad but Manchester City don't tend to make mistakes."
