Roy Keane does not buy into the notion that Arsenal are starting to fall apart ahead of their Premier League clash with Manchester City.
Arsenal head to the Etihad with a six-point lead at the top of the Premier League table, and there is a reason for that.
🤔 TRUE or FALSE: If Arsenal sit back against Man City, they will be beaten comfortably…

Roy Keane says Arsenal have ‘not come off the rails yet’
Meanwhile, Keane also thinks Arsenal’s involvement in the title race over the last few seasons will help them at the weekend.
The former Manchester United captain also insists that the Gunners have not yet come off the rails, having taken just one point less than City.
“Well, how come they’ve won so many games by the way? How come they’ve got the best record? There are no mugs,” Keane said.
“Rory McIlroy was sitting here not long ago, and he was saying sometimes on the course his leg was going, his head was spinning, and the other day he had that experience.
“So I think those experiences over the last few seasons will stand him in good stead.
“Over the last six games, I think they’re a point less than what City have got. It’s not as if they’ve come off the rails and lost three or four games. I’m looking at the facts. Look at the facts. Look at the league table.”
The Gunners now need to prove Keane right and show that they can finally turn up in the big moments.
