Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger knows there's plenty of hype around their trip to Manchester City.
Wenger is aware that conclusions will be drawn following the match against the Premier League champions.
"It's inevitable that opinions will fly around on Sunday night," he told Arsenal Player. "That is normal and accepted, you have to deal with that. So let's make sure that the opinions are in our favour."
The Premier League is already taking shape, with three of the sides that finished in last season's top four sitting in similar positions. But Wenger insists there is a long way to go in the title race.
"[Only] four games have been played and I believe some of teams are coming back into the race. The Premier League is very difficult now, it's very unpredictable," he said.
"Let's focus on us, our consistency and take care of our attitude. I think what's been remarkable up until now is our attitude."
