The Premier League title race is heading towards a dramatic finish.
Manchester City closed the gap to Arsenal to just two points after their comfortable 3-0 victory over Crystal Palace on Wednesday night.
However, despite the pressure increasing once again, Mikel Arteta’s men remain firm favourites to win the title with only two games left to play.
Phil Foden, though, is clearly refusing to give up hope just yet.

Phil Foden says Man City will push Arsenal and keep them on their toes till the end
Manchester City have been in countless title races under Pep Guardiola and know better than anyone how quickly things can change.
That experience is exactly why they are refusing to accept defeat despite Arsenal still holding the advantage.
City’s players understand that any slip-up from the Gunners could completely change the direction of the race.
Foden made it clear after the win over Crystal Palace that the mentality inside the City dressing room remains the same.
The England international insisted that they will continue applying pressure on Arsenal right until the final day of the Premier League season.
Speaking after the game, Foden said, as per The Evening Standard: “It’s a team game at the end of the day, if you want to win titles and trophies it’s about a full squad and everyone playing their part.
“The aim is to keep pushing and keep them (Arsenal) on their toes. We’ve seen a lot of things can happen on the final day.
“I’ve experienced it many times when the game doesn’t go your way. We just have to keep pushing and doing our part.”

Arsenal can put even more pressure on Manchester City
While City have cut the gap to two points for now, Arsenal still have a huge opportunity to swing the pressure back onto Guardiola’s side.
The Gunners play on Monday, while City do not have another Premier League game until next week.
That means Arsenal can move five points clear again with a victory.
Such a gap would massively increase the pressure on City heading into the final stretch of the campaign.
To make things even more complicated for Guardiola’s side, they also have an FA Cup final to deal with on Sunday.
Arsenal remain in control of the title race, and another win would make City’s task even more difficult.
