Manchester City are really in top form at the moment, so I think it will be very difficult to contain Manchester City. Leicester didn't have a good chance to try to stop Manchester City today, even Leicester had been 3-0 down since the first half. Because of that, it looked very easy for Pep Guardiola to rotate some players in the second half as Haaland and John Stones have been replaced by Alvarez and Manuel Akanji.
Agree that Man City has been difficult to stop this season, they have continued to progress with extraordinary performance. Leicester City couldn't help but look like they were holding on and trying not to concede more goals. Haaland is unshakable and continues to make his own history in the Premier League. Almost all Man City players are solid and intend to take another top of the standings. Arsenal is starting to feel insecure because playing under pressure tomorrow against West Ham will make it difficult for their players to focus. If Arsenal is again held to a draw or loses in that match, it means that Man City will easily rise to the top of the standings. It is possible that the end of the season will make Arsenal even more depressed.
Haaland has scored 32 goals so far in the Premier League, that is a fantastic number of goals in a season that will likely surpass Alan Shearer's record of 34 goals. Manchester City are very lucky to own Haaland this season, his contribution has been incredible. So of course Manchester City have been drumming up a threat to Arsenal for the rest of the season, now they are only 3 points apart, too close to be surpassed if Arsenal fail to win against West Ham tomorrow.

Manchester City will likely play it safe in the second half because there are still important matches waiting for them in the Champions League. So I think Pep Guardiola is getting excited to look forward to the second leg of the Champions League against Bayern Munich because Leicester are looking easy to beat.
Leicester doesn't have the strong defence so it was likely they are gonna concede in the first half. With such an easy scoreline they can switch players and can save their energy for their CL matchup with Bayern but then again they are having a good lead there as well. City are performing dominantly and right now everyone seems like an easy opponent before them. I just hope that somehow Arsenal keeps up their gap till the end in the PL.
But Leicester almost found a way to chase Manchester City's 3 goals, but they were very unlucky today.
So in the end Manchester City managed to win 3-1 today, lots of rotations throughout the second half, good preparation ahead of the Champions League second leg against Bayern. Pep Guardiola's work this season has been very good, but they have to struggling to the end because the title is too far away.
