Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta says their draw at Manchester City was achieved by maintaining their discipline.

The Gunners and City drew 0-0 on Sunday in a game of few chances.

Arteta later said: "It is tough because they [City] have so many different structures and move so much inside and on the base, from the winger stepping inside, from the centre backs stepping up, the full backs stepping up.

"You have to maintain certain principles to be able to keep them under pressure, and when you don't then you are low. At that point you have to be disciplined so they cannot pin you up at any moment.

On if his relationship with City counterpart Pep Guardiola influenced the game, he said: "Yes. I think it has to be. When we have the ball and when we don't we need to adapt and they need to do the same. It is like that with every manager, but the problem is today it is the best manager in the world, so it is much more difficult.

"Coming to these big places not a lot of teams have done what we have done today, especially when there is a lot at stake and the pressure elevates. To respond to it is another step.

On the title, Arteta concluded: "Nothing changes. We wanted to win but we didn't, we know the Liverpool result but we need to just carry on. There's a lot still to play for.
