MANCHESTER, England (Reuters) - When Manchester City won at Arsenal last week to move top of the Premier League, many assumed the champions would have no trouble going on to a fifth title in six seasons, but the north Londoners proved on Saturday the race is far from won.

And to make City's title defence all the more difficult, rivals Manchester United are not going away either.

However, Saturday's results saw the pendulum swing once more. Wednesday's loss looked to have done damage to Arsenal's confidence as they trailed 2-1 at Aston Villa in the day's early kick off. "Credit to the boys. The dressing room was absolutely bouncing. It was a big effort to play less than 72 hours ago after the game that we had, and after the result that we had which obviously morally was touching."

What makes this season potentially even more enticing is that there could well be three teams in the running for the crown.
