Manchester City defender Bacary Sagna insists defeat to Arsenal does not mean their title bid is over.
Sagna, signed on a free transfer from Arsenal in the summer, was on the bench on Sunday when his old club stunned the Etihad Stadium with a deserved 2-0 win.
"Unfortunately we lost against Arsenal but we have a long way to go," Sagna told CityTV.
"We have to work hard even more. We managed to come back last year with seven points, today we are five points behind."
