Bukayo Saka insists Manchester City are "not perfect" and that Arsenal will keep a close eye on their title rivals after Sunday's thrilling 3-2 North London Derby victory over Tottenham Hotspur.

The Gunners raced into a 3-0 half-time lead at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium after an own goal from Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg was quickly followed up by efforts from Saka and Kai Havertz. However, they were made to weather a late storm as Cristian Romero and Son Heung-Min reduced the deficit.

But despite beating their local rivals and opening up a four-point lead at the top of the Premier League, Arsenal's league title hopes remain out of their control as Manchester City currently have two games in hand on the Gunners.

Speaking to Sky Sports after Sunday's win, Saka admitted Arsenal are focused on winning their remaining games of the season and dismissed the suggestion that Pep Guardiola's side will canter to a fourth successive title.

Asked what Arsenal's plan was after beating Spurs, Saka said: "Well, we’ll get on the bus, put the game on and hope for the best! City are an amazing team but they’re not perfect - no one’s perfect.

"They can drop points, we just need to do our job. There is not much room for error, they showed that last year and the years before. We’ve got experience now, learnt our lessons last year and we’re ready for the last three games.”

The 22-year-old was part of the Arsenal side that fell away in the final weeks of last season's title hunt but believes he and his team-mates are better equipped to take City to the wire this time around, proven by Sunday's gritty second-half performance.

"Last season that could have ended in a draw but today we showed that we have the experience now," added Saka. "We can come here and get three points even when the stakes are high and it is a massive game. Delighted, like I said before."
