Gary Neville has identified Pep Guardiola, Erling Haaland, and Gianluigi Donnarumma as the three Manchester City figures Arsenal must fear in the Premier League title race. The Sky Sports pundit believes these key players could inspire 'something special' as City chase down leaders Arsenal, who currently hold a six-point advantage.

City's 2-1 comeback win at Liverpool has reignited their title hopes and set up a crucial run-in. Neville emphasized that while Arsenal remain the best team in England with the most consistent squad, City's trio of manager, goalkeeper, and striker possess the winning mentality needed to mount a serious challenge. The victory at Anfield has restored belief within the City camp.

Bernardo Silva admitted City's title hopes would likely have been over had they lost at Anfield, making the win even more significant. With City now just three points behind Arsenal and a game in hand, the pressure shifts to Mikel Arteta's side ahead of their match against Brentford. Neville warned Arsenal cannot underestimate the experience and winning pedigree of Guardiola, Haaland, and Donnarumma.

The next fortnight will prove pivotal, with City facing Fulham on Wednesday before Arsenal's trip to Brentford. As the title race intensifies, City's 'big three' characters could prove decisive in what promises to be an enthralling finish to the season.
