On the latest episode of BBC Radio 5 Live's Monday Night Club, the panel discuss the Premier League title race.

It could be argued that the narrative has slightly shifted in the last few weeks, giving Manchester City a more favourable shot at the title – but former Premier League striker Chris Sutton isn't buying it.

"Pep Guardiola is trying to show that the confidence and belief is there for the final run-in, but I'm not sure that it washes," Sutton said.

"The reason I think Arsenal will still win it is looking at their bench against Tottenham – they don't have a weak spot. It is an amazing bench."

The Observer's Rory Smith added: "[Everyone has been saying] Arsenal are stumbling, choking, and Manchester City are coming and gathering strength – but they have had the exact same record this calendar year. Arsenal were two points clear at Christmas and are two points clear now [assuming City win their game in hand]."
