Arsenal will undoubtedly be humbled by Manchester City when the two teams square off in their title-deciding match on Wednesday, according to Aston Villa great Gabriel Agbonlahor. Following their 'embarrassing' performance in their 3-3 draw with Southampton, he said that the Gunners may lose against the Citizens by 'three or four goals'. Agbonlahor thinks Arsenal's chances of winning the Premier League have been seriously jeopardized. After draws with Liverpool, West Ham United, and most recently Southampton, Arsenal's hold on the championship has loosened. Although the reigning champions have two games in hand before the Etihad battle on Wednesday, they are five points ahead of Manchester City. Agbonlahor believes that without William Saliba as a defender, Arsenal has the ability to try to halt Manchester City's onslaught. According to Agbonlahor, he told Talk Sport: “First of all, the huddle was embarrassing. “Zinchenko, concentrate on your game. The set piece for the third goal you don’t follow your man and concede. “That, for a start, was embarrassing. “For me, Rob Holding is a Championship defender. Not good enough to be third choice at a team who want to win the title. “Since Saliba has been injured they’ve conceded nine goals in five games – three draws in a row, that’s not championship form. “I think that Man City will put three or four past this Arsenal team on Wednesday, I really do. “He’ll play Mahrez or Bernardo Silva on Zinchenko – Haaland will be in the changing room now saying, ‘guys I can’t wait to play against Holding and Gabriel’.”
