Bukayo Saka says Arsenal paying little attention to Man City’s pursuit of them

Arsenal forward Bukayo Saka insists they are paying little attention to Manchester City’s pursuit of them after reclaiming top spot for Christmas for the third time in four years.

Having seen Pep Guardiola’s side supplant them as Premier League leaders, the Gunners re-established their two-point advantage with a 1-0 victory at Everton a few hours later.

Full-strength opposition would have presented more of a challenge but the home side were significantly depleted and that eased any pressure which had been exerted by their title rivals as Arsenal did not have to be at their best to win.

Always impacting.
