Arsenal vs Man City LIVE: Premier League result and final score as ...

"During the game, it [my feelings] was so-so. At the end maybe more than unusual. It's a great day for us, especially against the level of opposition we played today.

"To beat them in the manner we've done, a lot has to go your way. We played aggressively, with a lot of courage.

“Even if you want it, they are that good that sometimes you have to stay deep and suffer, and enjoy those moments as well. We had a bit of luck in some moments,” he adds.

"Just enjoy the day, it's something we will learn from as well and understand still that a lot of things have to go your way to win in that manner.

“One is to create the unbelievable energy in the stadium, we cannot waste one minute. It transforms the team and makes it tough for the opposition. It makes the players believe we can beat anyone on their day. It's going to be very helpful for the future,” he says.

On the situation after the match in September, he adds: “You have to focus on us and believe in anything that can happen.

“I've been in football a long time, just leave what happens."

Speaking in his post-match conference, Pep Guardiola says that he agrees that the result is unacceptable.

"We reacted really well. After the Havertz miss, we played the game in the high, high level we can be.

"You can lose two, three, four. But what we have done in 65, it was not done.

"Hopefully we can learn the lessons for the future,” he added.

"We are not used to that. Other results, this team has grown up. We allowed the space we wanted to avoid, the space in between the lines, that's why we have the feeling at home.

"We have done 60 minutes really good. I know Arsenal here, teh aount of chances they created. We didn't create much. We didn't give a lot for Havertz, didn't' give away from set pieces.

"But the last 20 minutes we were found out.

“It happens. It's football. There are a lot of goals. It happens. I don't like it, I'm a bit sad. But it's time to continue. We have a long week, we learn from that again. I know the players want to do it.

"It's not easy Arsenal are really good, the physicality and pressing were really good. In the future we will have games where we have to be stable.

“Those moments will pass and we have to take the game again. It's the responsibility of me as the manager to do it."

Speaking to Sky, John Stones says that this kind of result “is hard to put into words”.

"How we played in the last 30 minutes was not acceptable. Personally and collectively, it's not us.

"It is not nice to be involved in that when you know it's not your team in those situations. Credit to Arsenal, this is not an easy place to come to. For 65 minutes, we played some great football at times.

"We were in the game and it was a swinging point. It swung the wrong way for us.

"It is difficult when there is an overload at the back, and you have a split second decision to come out and they got the luck on that one.

"I could have stayed more square, I'd have to watch it back. We cannot let those situations get on top of us.

"We stopped doing the things we meant to.

"A lot of different things that I have not figured out why we are not picking up results.

"The passion is there, the training and everyone has the right intention.

"We have not got to where we are without difficult times and that is through everyone's career right now.

"We all have to stick together, that's a key point that we don't start to point fingers."

Declan Rice is speaking to Sky right after his two teammates, and he says that “the scoreline in the end is an unbelievable score”.

“From the moment we stepped onto the pitch we had that fire in our belly. We wanted to go out there and amend that [the 2-2].

“They had a lot of the ball, we had to sit deep at times. They can still punish teams.

“In the end, to win 5-1 was top but I thought it was a really tough game,” he adds.

On his own involvement, he says: “To get two assists is really big, and I need to add goals and assists to my game, especially if I’m going to continue playing in the ‘8’ position.”

“It’s been one of the best days since I’ve been at Arsenal,” he adds.

On the title race, he says: “It’s down to us to hunt them [Liverpool]. We know the goal we want, that’s to hunt them down.

“We need to keep taking reach game as it comes.”

Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard is first to speak to Sky, and he’s with Kai Havertz.

Odegaard says that “in the end a scoresheet like that can’t be better, so we’re very happy”.

Havertz adds that Arsenal “managed to press them well and to not give them much time.

“Our energy was good as we used our chances,” he adds.

“I think it’s the timing, we train it a lot [the press]. It’s not only us, it’s everyone. I think the energy there is very important, the rest of the team did it excellently.”

Odegaard calls Havertz a “top player with and without the ball”, adding that it’s “good to have him in the team”.

“We just kept on going, and in the end I think we got what we deserved,” adds Odegaard.

Arsenal’s next match is a second leg tie in the Carabao Cup, with the Gunners needing to overturn a two-goal deficit against Newcastle at St James’ Park.

City have almost a week off, as they face Leyton Orient in the FA Cup on Saturday, 8 February.

That result pulls Arsenal to within six points of Liverpool at the top of the table, though the Reds have a game in hand.

City stay in fourth, on 41 points, though they could be overtaken by Chelsea tomorrow night.

That goal is more or less the last action of the game, and Arsenal have earned an emphatic win against their rivals.

They’re still a way off Liverpool, but that win will give them some serious confidence.

GOAL! Out of nowhere, and Ethan Nwaneri is clearly determined not to be outdone by fellow youngster Lewis-Skelly.

He makes it look deceptively simple. He picks the ball up from a great pass from Rice, and cuts inside before curling in a perfect effort that nestles at the bottom of the far corner.
