What happened
Pep Guardiola said he will be watching Arsenal's match against West Ham, according to Fabrizio Romano's post on Sunday, May 10, 2026. The comment extends his public focus on Arsenal's visit to West Ham as Manchester City chase the Premier League lead.
Why it matters
The quote matters because Arsenal still control the title race and West Ham can directly affect City's chances. It also underlines how closely City are tracking a match that carries stakes at both ends of the table, with Arsenal pushing for the title and West Ham fighting to stay up.
The data edge
Premier League context: Manchester City beat Brentford 3-0 on May 9 to move within two points of Arsenal. Arsenal still control their fate with three league matches left, starting at West Ham. West Ham are in the relegation zone with three matches remaining and need points in the run-in.
What to watch
Watch whether Arsenal take points at the London Stadium and whether City can keep pace in their remaining fixtures. Any Arsenal slip would reopen the title race immediately.
