Manchester City condemned Arsenal to their seventh defeat in 2018 and third defeat in just this week alone to replicate Sunday’s Carabao Cup scoreline.
City produced a scintillating display on a wintery evening at the Emirates with three sublime goals from Bernado Silva, David Silva, and Leroy Sane handing them their third win over Arsenal this season.
The defeat now mounts near unbearable pressure on the shoulders of manager Arsene Wenger who has told fans he will be the person to make the decision as to when he will leave the club.
“All the decisions will always be mine”
The contrast in the touchline behavior from both sets of managers was more than telling, as whilst Pep Guardiola continued to bark out orders to his side at 3-0 up, Wenger sat on the bench looking abject and broken.
At this moment in time, we look closer than ever to the end of the French manager’s 21-year reign in charge of the Gunners, however, the man himself feels very different.
When asked about whether he may decide to leave Arsenal in the near future, Wenger answered:
“I have been here for 21 years and I always respected my contract so I am quite amazed that you ask me the question.
In life, I look at what people do, not at what they say.
What I did in my life was that, so I am quite amazed that you asked me the question.
If you want me not to be here, that’s a different problem.
You ask me my commitment, and my attitude is dictated by what I did in my life, not by what I say in a press conference.”
When asked about who will decide when he will leave Arsenal, Wenger responded:
“All the decisions are technically will always be mine and that will remain because it’s part of my job.”
