We shouldn't forget that the likes of Sagna, Vermaelen, Santos, Wilshere and Gervinho are all missing. Let's not include Gibbs and Diaby because they're both made of glass. How did City function without their three key players (Kompany, Silva and Toure). They lost to Liverpool and had an abysmal performance. It's no suprise Arsenal lost this game. It could be argued Arsenal are missing five key players because the one's injured and the one at the ACN would have a big impact and won us this game. Theres also a lack of passion, some of the players at Arsenal are in it for the money.
