Nasri: City will still win the title before Arsenal

Mikel Arteta’s late shot from distance saw the hosts take a slender victory to leave City eight points adrift of table-toppers Manchester United and all but end their hope of taking their first championship since 1968. Frenchman Nasri –who left north London for Manchester in the summer - had previously said that his new team would claim the title before his former and despite losing out to Arsene Wenger’s side, is standing by his statement. “I’m aware what I said about titles,” Nasri wrote on Twitter. “I’m sure I will lift a trophy with Man City before AFC. “And to all the Arsenal fans, move on. City are 10 points ahead of you. “Just support your team and forget about me.”
