Arsenal have been able to play with more freedom since losing to Manchester City in the Premier League because there was no longer an expectation on them to win the title, believes former top-flight defender Stephen Warnock. Mikel Arteta's side have gone on a four-game unbeaten run in the league and Europe since the away defeat by City on 19 April, and have regained their lead in the title race alongside now reaching the Champions League final. "The pressure was off because people thought City had won the title," said Warnock on BBC Match of the Day.
