Player ratings: Manchester City 0-0 Arsenal

Arsenal kept in touch at the top of the Premier League after challenging Manchester City to a stalemate on Sunday afternoon.

The Gunners were diligent defensively but lacked the cutting edge in attack required to come away with all three points.

The draw enabled Liverpool to take a two point lead at the leagues summit, and set up an exciting final nine games. Arsenal are very much in the title race, for the second season running.

With a quarter final against Bayern Munich in the Champions League around the corner, it’s certainly an exciting time to be an Arsenal fan.

Men of the match: I’m going to give it to Declan Rice. I felt he was the player that enabled us to be so much better this time around at The Etihad. Both central defenders were also brilliant, as was Ben White.
