The Gunners, who arrived at the Etihad having lost their previous eight Premier League fixtures against City, made a terrible start after falling behind to Ilkay Gundogan’s seventh-minute header setting the stage for the Citizens’ massive thrashing.

Manchester City doubled their lead just five minutes later, through Ferran Torres’s close-range finish after yet more woeful Arsenal defending.

Then, Arsenal midfielder Granit Xhaka saw a red card for a two-footed challenge on Joao Cancelo just ten minutes before half-time.

Striker, Gabriel Jesus added a third two minutes before the interval after a fine approach play from Jack Grealish to end the game as a contest, with Torres heading in his second to complete the scoring six minutes from time.
