"We are playing against the best teams week in, week out. We have to keep pushing and believing in ourselves, controlling the controllable. We have to block out the outside noise. We have done that really well. People are going to talk up the title race, but we have a really calm group."
"I'm not naive to think Brentford are a pushover. They are one of the best teams in the league and their recent form shows that. It's a point gained in our journey, but we wanted to win the game."
Arsenal were held 1-1 at Brentford, leaving Manchester City four points behind with home advantage when the sides meet in April. Arsenal had aimed to end a 22-year wait for the title and had been nine points clear before City's late 2-1 win at Liverpool tightened the race. City maintained momentum with a 3-0 win over Fulham midweek while Arsenal failed to respond. Noni Madueke gave the visitors the lead, Brentford equalised through Keane Lewis-Potter, and Brentford threatened to claim all three points in the final 20 minutes. Declan Rice urged focus and composure.
