London –
Manchester City’s 3-0 Premier League victory over Chelsea, hard on the heels of a League Cup final triumph over Arsenal and an FA Cup thrashing of Liverpool, suggests that Pep Guardiola’s men are embarking on another of their devastating late-season runs.
Although Sunday’s win followed league draws against struggling West Ham United and Nottingham Forest, City’s second-half dismantling of Chelsea and its recent cup exploits will send a shiver down the spines of table-topper Arsenal.
The Gunners unexpectedly lost 2-1 at home against Bournemouth on Saturday, and although the Londoners remain six points clear, second-place City has a game in hand and will host Arsenal next weekend.
