And Bournemouth seem to play with a certain freedom at the Emirates at the weekend as well.
I mean, you heard the crowd reaction at the end of the game.
It certainly sounded tetchy during there too.
It reminded me of their defeat against Manchester United at the same venue a couple of months ago, where you could almost feel the nervousness around the Arsenal faithful during the game as well.
And look,
This is a natural consequence when Arsenal go 48 games and lose three games and now they've lost three over the last month as Miguel has outlined there with the EFL Cup final defeat Southampton and now this defeat against Bournemouth as well.
There is always that feeling that maybe it's a case of the wheels are about to come off and Manchester City have got a really intimidating record Danny when it comes to April.
So under Pep Guardiola, the last 32 games they played in April, they've won 29.
I appreciate that maybe this Manchester City team might not be quite the vintage of some of the dominant teams at the turn of this decade.
But the reality is that Guardiola generally gets things right at this time of the season.
And you can feel that there is a team...
They're right behind them now in terms of this chase.
And obviously this weekend becomes huge because Arsenal's approach has largely been be safe, be conservative, don't lose games.
They're not good at coming back.
Went behind 12 times this season.
They've only won three of those matches.
What approach do they take against Man City this coming Sunday?
Because I think if City turn them over, City having already won the EFL Cup final against them as well, I think then panic stations start to hit for Arsenal.
Funnily enough, if Arsenal get a draw at the weekend...
You're thinking it's still in their hands between the end of the season.
