Gabriel Martinelli, a player for Arsenal, has warned Manchester City after the Gunners widened their lead at the top of the Premier League.
After beating the Wolves, Mikel Arteta responds to having a five-point advantage.
Following their victory over Wolves on Saturday, Manchester City’s star Gabriel Martinelli warned them and vowed more from the team after the World Cup. It occurs as the Gunners extend their advantage over the competition’s competition leaders to five points, ensuring that they will be in first place at Christmas for the first time since 2007.
After a crucial 2-0 victory over Wolves at Molineux, where club captain Martin Odegaard scored twice, Mikel Arteta’s team accomplished the achievement.

It keeps them firmly in the running for the championship, but the World Cup break could derail their progress at a less than ideal time.
Arteta commented on the break in the season, saying, “When a team is in that moment, you obviously want to continue on playing, but it’s not possible.” “We have to make the most of that moment. The people who aren’t competing in the World Cup will get some well-earned downtime, while the others can just realize their childhood dreams of being able to compete for their country in a national championship. Nothing is better than that.”
Pep Guardiola will be irritated that his team isn’t closer or even in the lead in the title battle after Manchester City suffered a shock loss to Brentford at home earlier in the day and the margin at the top widened to five points. He has acknowledged, though, that the Gunners have been the better team thus far this season.
However, things could get worse for the City manager as Arsenal player Martinelli tweeted after the Wolves game to issue a strong warning to his team and to Arsenal supporters: “I hope you found it as entertaining as we did, Gooners. Once we return, more will be given.”
Given that City haven’t yet reached top gear this season compared to the Gunners, the possibility that the team will give more after the World Cup could serve as a warning. Even though there are still many games left in the season that could make a difference in the title race, Arteta will be delighted that his team is leading the league going into the World Cup break.
