The embarrassing record that Arsenal maintained due to loss to Manchester City

Arsenal was on Wednesday welcomed by Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium and the gunners left there with tears after getting beaten 4-1.

Arsenal’s hopes of winning the Premier League title this season have taken a major hit after they suffered a humiliating 4-1 defeat at the hands of Manchester City on Wednesday night. The loss means that Arsenal have now equalled their own 15-year-old record, having failed to win four consecutive Premier League games while still being in first place. This also happened to them in the 2008 season as they failed to win in four matches while top.

The Gunners had started the season brightly and were leading the table for much of the campaign. However, their form has dipped in recent weeks, and they now find themselves just two points ahead of second-placed Manchester City, who have two games in hand.

The defeat to City was particularly disappointing for Arsenal fans, as it came just days after their team had drawn their last three matches. The Gunners had been hoping to win that match against Manchester City to confirm that they still had the advantage in the title race but their dreams were dashed by a lacklustre performance in Manchester.

Arsenal’s poor form has been attributed to a number of factors, including injuries to a specifically a key player, William Saliba. There have also been concerns about the team’s experience since most of the starting eleven is very young.

 

However, many fans and pundits believe that Arsenal’s chances of winning the title are now slim at best. With just five games left to play, they will need to win all of them and hope that Manchester City slip up along the way.

For Arsenal fans, it is a frustrating time as they watch their team struggle to maintain their position at the top of the table. But with the season still not over, there is still hope that they can turn things around and end the campaign on a high.
