And Rodri explained how City’s “mentality” proved decisive in a gripping title race against Arsenal following the goalless draw in March, though Arteta maintains his side will come again after falling agonisingly short. “To be honest, I think it’s in here,” Rodri told Optus Sport while pointing to his head.
