Man City take the top of the table, Arsenal needs to be cautious with Manchester United

Man City defeated Fulham 4-0 in round 37 of the Premier League, thereby taking the top spot from Arsenal with 2 points more.

Man City raced to the finish line.

Fulham no longer had any aspirations in this season. Therefore, Marco Silva’s squad also played without determination and succumbed to Manchester City with a score of 0-4 right at their home ground.

Josko Gvardiol continued to dazzle fans with an impressive performance both defensively and offensively. In the match in London, the former Leipzig defender scored 2 goals, bringing his tally for this season to 5 goals, with 4 of them scored in the Premier League.

In the 13th minute, Gvardiol dribbled like a forward before unleashing a shot past Bernd Leno. By the 71st minute, the Croatian international once again showcased his skills with a run, receiving a precise pass from Bernardo Silva, before finishing from a tight angle, sending the home team’s goalkeeper into the net.

Gvardiol’s brace and goals from Phil Foden (59′) and Julian Alvarez (90+7) helped Manchester City secure 3 points and officially claim the top spot from Arsenal. Pep Guardiola’s team has 85 points, 2 points ahead of Arsenal.

In this round, the “Gunners” will have to travel to Manchester United’s Old Trafford, where they have only won once in their last 16 away matches. If Arsenal fails to secure 3 points, their title race will almost certainly come to an end.

At this point, the fate lies entirely with Manchester City, as Pep Guardiola’s team only needs to win both of their remaining matches to become the first club in history to win the Premier League title four seasons in a row.
