The Gunners manager claims he had no “petrol” before the amazing unbeaten run in a reference at City’s pots of gold.
“We had no petrol but ideas, they have petrol and ideas,” said Wenger. “It can happen but there is still a long way to go.
“At the moment I think everything goes for them inside the games but maybe as well they have the quality to turn it in their favour.
“They have resources. Money and quality is what I wanted to say and in their management and players they have everything that is needed to be successful.
“It’s still not easy, they still have to respect that achievement.”

They face a Newcastle side whose manager Rafa Benitez has spoken of being given the go-ahead to identify January transfer targets despite the ongoing uncertainty over the club’s ownership.
The Spaniard met managing director Lee Charnley this week to discuss what he may or may not be able to do to strengthen his squad during the winter window after a demoralising run of eight Premier League games which has brought just a point.
Benitez is still to be told what funds will be available and whether or not Mike Ashley remains in charge with Amanda Staveley’s PCP Capital Partners still engaged in negotiations to buy the club, but he is keeping his fingers crossed that he will be able to recruit.
Benitez said: “I had yesterday a conversation with Lee. We were talking about what we want to do and the players maybe we want to bring in and others to go out. We’ve already started this discussion and we’ll see if we can progress in a few days.
“It was just to talk about ideas. After, we might say, ‘We’d like to sign this player’ and you’re quoted £40million and it makes it unrealistic. We’ve had this conversation and we have to move forward quickly.”
