Ruben Dias confident Manchester City will raise their game for visit of Arsenal

Ruben Dias says “there is no running away from Arsenal” and is confident Manchester City will raise their performance levels when the Gunners visit the Etihad Stadium on Sunday.

Although City have blazed a trail through their opening four Premier League games this season, winning each of them, they struggled to break down a resolute Inter Milan defence last night with their Champions League opener ending in a goalless draw.

Next up is a clash with an Arsenal side that have been City’s closest challengers in the Premier League over the past two seasons in another tough test for Pep Guardiola’s men.

But Dias says they will be ready for the challenge.

He told The Independent: “There’s no running away from them, hiding from them, if you want to be the best as a team in this league.

“We’re not hiding from nothing. We want them to come and we want to be the best.

“The season has just started. I’d say we’re still far from our best. We were very good [against Inter] but we’re still progressing in quality of play, in mentality, everything.

“We were very happy with the performance. We were solid both attacking and defending and it was very minor, the difference between winning or not.

“It’s another learning [curve]. We have a lot to improve and we look forward for what’s coming.”
