Arsene Wenger feels Manchester City are not as dominant this season due to their defensive frailties but believes Pep Guardiola's side remain the only challenger to Arsenal for the title.
Only the Gunners (18) and Newcastle (13) have conceded fewer than City’s 22 Premier League goals this term. However, the Blues have kept just two league clean sheets since October.
Nevertheless, a win for the defending champions against Arsenal on Wednesday will see City go top of the table on goal difference, albeit having played a game more than their opponents. Some are suggesting this season is Arsenal's best shot at a title given the potential of their rivals improving next term.
However, Wenger says Mikel Arteta and his squad will not be thinking in that way but instead will be focused on the task at hand.

Speaking on beIN SPORT about Arsenal's mindset, Wenger said: “You win it when you can win it and you don’t care too much about the rest, you take the title and let the rest talk about it.
"I agree the conditions next season won’t be as favourable as they are now so let's not miss this opportunity. Arsenal has 51 points after 21 games which is remarkable.
"I feel the usual threats are all out of the race. The only threat is City and even City is now not as dominant as they were last year or two years before and I feel since the start of the season City was more vulnerable defensively than before."
