From rejects to rivals - Premier League title twists could derail Man City and Arsenal

Manchester City and Arsenal will battle it out until the final week of the season for the Premier League title.

Just one point currently separates the two sides with a few matches remaining, meaning there are only a handful of teams who can make a difference in the title race. However, there are plenty of opportunities in there to keep script writers happy.

Arsenal have already lost control at the top of the table thanks to their former manager Unai Emery coming back to bite them, and there are many more potential stories to be had from the final matches. Here are some of the narratives that could take hold in the final days of the season.

City can't win the league at Fulham this weekend, but will return to the scene where Arsenal were last top last season. Mikel Arteta's team had led for much of the year and had spent more than two months at the summit without dropping down when the Blues headed to West London at the end of April and won a scruffy game 2-1.

They moved ahead of the Gunners with a game in hand, and would never again lose the lead for the rest of the campaign. If they can win there on Saturday, Arsenal will have to win at Old Trafford to retake top spot.

One of City's less impressive academy deals was letting Tosin Adarabioyo go for relative pennies to Fulham. Adarabioyo looked like one of the most exciting youngsters coming through when Guardiola arrived in 2016, yet he wasn't handled particularly well with Eric Garcia among those preferred in the first team.
