I think with Arsenal going 8 points clear at the top of the league table will increase the pressure on Manchester City to want to get a must win in their next premier league game. Manchester City are currently distracted with the champions league, they will be facing Dortmund in the UCL soon and I think Pep will prioritize winning the UCL over the epl because the champions league trophy has eluded him for so many years at Manchester City. He would not want to lose this chance. This gives Arsenal the advantage in the race for the trophy, Manchester city is not a team to underestimate so Arsenal will have to be at their best performances to win the title.

Arsenal fc will be the champions of English Premier league and there's nothing anyone can do about it. Same as Barcelona is the champions of Laliga.
Barcelona crashed out of the Champions League and Europa league and focused on Laliga and last night they became the champions.
Likewise Arsenal crashed out of the Europa and they will focus on the English Premier League and become the champions.

Arsenal is 8 points clear but at the same time, Manchester City has played one match less compared to Arsenal. Now I do not think it is going to be a good idea for Arsenal to take things easy. They will have to perform better if they want to be the English Premier League title champion.

I don't know if Manchester City is actually 100% interested to win the English Premier League title. At least I think they are not more interested in the English Premier League title this time, at least not more than the Champions League trophy. I think the main target of Manchester City is to win the Champions League trophy and finish in the top three of the English Premier League. And that gives Arsenal a little more breathing space.

When it comes to English premier league title I am always very careful before making assumptions of who to win. What happens in the case of Barcelona may likely not be the same for Arsenal. La liga is a less difficult league than English premiere league. Cases like teams from religion zone trashing teams in top 4 zones rarely happens, unlike EPL where top 4 teams can come out with a disappointing result at any moment. considering the matches left and the already existing point gap between Manchester city and Arsenal, there is a lot more work left for Arsenal to do.
