3 Things We Learned From Arsenal’s Heart Breaking Defeat vs Manchester City

3. Arsenal have new found steel

Mertesacker to sign a contract extension
Mertesacker

In previous seasons, we have seen Arsenal go one or two goals down and fade away, losing confidence and playing like the game is already away from them. However, it is now different. They may have been on the wrong side of a 6-3 hammering, but they gave it a go, and some of their players kept going until the end. Per Mertesacker never gave up and was annoyed at Mesut Ozil for leaving the pitch straight after the game in a cocky manner, acting like he was too good for the rest of the team. If they had kept themselves together, they could have kept pushing after they clawed it back to 3-2. With a little more quality, Arsenal could go far.
