Arsenal boss, Mikel Arteta, has reflected on their 1-0 win over Manchester City on Sunday.
Gabriel Martinelli came off the bench to net the winner with four matches left.
It ended a run of 12 Premier League matches without a win against City.
Arteta, speaking to Sky Sports, said: “So proud. It was the moment with the right people and the right players. We knew we would have to suffer and we did that. You need a big performance and the crowd too. It feels like a big win.
“I think the way we started we conceded the corner and then we gained some control and in the second half we started really good. We were there and really aggressive. The changes helped as well. The quality they produced in the goal was top.
“[City] give you a lot [of problems] and we gave them a lot of issues as well. It is not easy to get out. You need the right timing, the right movement, the right moments. I like the courage.
“You are going to have these [hard] moments against this team. You have to be direct and managed the emotions and make sure you don’t get caught against this team.”
