The Gunners pulled off a dramatic 1-0 victory over West Ham United on Sunday afternoon, courtesy of a late winner from Leandro Trossard as they grabbed all 3 points.
Victory has left Arsenal five points clear of City at the top of the Premier League table and with just two games remaining for the North London side, the title is theirs to lose.
Arsenal must focus
City would need Arsenal to slip up at the last hurdle, as well as to win all three of their remaining league games in what seems like an almost impossible task.
Speaking after the win over the Hammers, Lewis-Skelly revealed that although 3 points were picked up, his side must focus on the task at hand.
"We feel joy, excitement, fulfilment - everything you can describe. We are buzzing, but we know the job is not done.
"We've got two more finals left now. The next one is Burnley and then we go on from there. As players, as a fan myself, it’s easy to think about what could be. But, it is important that we stay in the moment and stay on it.
"I am focused on the games we have coming up and bringing this club back to glory."
Lewis-Skelly has struggled
The 19-year-old has struggled this season under manager Mikel Arteta who has been reluctant to feature the teenager. Speaking on his troubles, the young defender stated that he has had a good support network backing him.
"It was tough initially. But, for me, I pride myself on having mental strength. Sport is not one pathway, because there are ups and downs. And it’s how you bounce back from that, and how you are in those moments when you face adversity. That is what defines you."
"I spoke with my family and friends. I just told them, ‘I don’t want to hear all the noise that is coming from social media. Let me stay in this moment, let me continue to face this adversity and let me come out the other side of it’."
