    This is just objectively false lol. After City lost to Tottenham away, Arsenal were 5 points clear with a game in hand (City had played 21 games and had 45 points while Arsenal had played 20 games and had 50 points). Taking your logic of assuming Arsenal would win the game in hand then at their best they were in fact 8 points clear. So this is indeed revisionism

      Every time the ‘collapse’ is brought up the table shows arsenal 8 points clear with city having 2 games in hand, and we had not played city once yet.

      Yes we should have taken the title race to the last week or two. But we were never truly in the box seat. Saliba getting injured and dropping more points just wrapped the season up a bit earlier.
