Jamie Carragher points out clever tactic Arsenal use to waste time when under pressure

The eagle-eyed pundit has spotted the strategy.

Playing against Champions Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday, it is never easy - never mind with ten players for 45 minutes.

Holding a priceless lead, the Gunners managed to defend like heroes for almost the full-half, before a 98th minute John Stones strike finally broke their resistance.

And Carragher has noticed one clever tactic that Mikel Arteta's men utilise in order to maximise performance:

Speaking on The Overlap, Carragher stated:

"There's one thing I do notice that Arsenal do more than anyone and I don't know if the stats back me up. I think your goalkeeper goes down a lot more than other goalkeepers, in tense situations - because the rules is the goalkeeper can't go off.

"So that's definitely one that the coaching staff at Arsenal are switched on probably more than anybody else. I see Raya go down in high pressure situations."

Arsenal boast one of, if not the best defence in the league and showed their resolve on Sunday.
