The hardest quarter-finals to call? Arsenal and Bayern both having something to prove? City too much for Madrid? And where will Mbappe be?

With Daniel Hussey, Adrian Clarke and Mark O'Haire

Chelsea somehow striving to turn the easiest win a team can have into an incident.

From this stage of a season on, in the 18 or so run-in games that have actually mattered over Guardiola's time, City have only dropped two points (a 2-2 draw at West Ham, funnily)

it is ominous for the challengers

In the modern Premier League - ie, against this City - you can’t lose home games at this point in a race

It’s not over, obviously, but yesterday was an immense psychological shift that everyone seems to have felt

Arteta asked why Odegaard was taken off.

'He was feeling something.'

What?
'Something... he could not continue.'

Arteta asked about psychological shift of this game, and whether that affects title challenge.

'If one game does that, we're not good enough to win it.'

Arteta asked about starting Trossard over Martinelli.

'Because I'm the manager and I decide the line-up.'

Arteta says first half was 'one of best performances this season'

Arteta re title in City's hands:

'It's about keeping believing, and doing what we can do.'

Emery: 'Game 33, 63 points, OK now we can say Aston Villa is a contender for Champions League - we have to be very demanding.'

Emery must be manager of the season, whatever happens even from here is immense over-performance - and he has possibly had a large say in deciding the title

So much for an unprecedented three-way title race

It's all so familiar at Arsenal

There was no grand-stand finish, and that might be the case for the title as a whole

It's only a point, but this was huge psychologically.

Emery did a number on them

What a finish Ollie Watkins, 2-0 Villa!

Arsenal, in truth, have done nothing second half.

1-0 Villa!

Arsenal haven't been the same really since the minute of that Watkins shot/Martinez save. It's almost like it reminded them Villa have a real threat here.

What a strike! Villa hit the frame of the goal for the second (and third!) time in the game.

Incredible save Martinez! Some minute of football there

Arsenal shredding Villa out wide - and, occasionally, through the centre.
