Arsenal fans have accused Manchester City of double standards after seeing what happened at the end of their 3-2 win over Fulham.

City remained undefeated in the Premier League with victory at the Etihad Stadium, although Pep Guardiola's side certainly had to earn it.

They went 1-0 down on 26 minutes through former Manchester United midfielder Andreas Pereira, before Mateo Kovacic levelled the scores before half-time.

The Croatia international scored his second on 47 minutes, before Jeremy Doku made it 3-1 late on.

Rodrigo Muniz then scored what turned out to be a consolation goal for Fulham.

But Arsenal fans spotted what happened in injury time, when City received three yellow cards.

Guardiola received a booking after an incident in his technical area, with goalkeeper Ederson and midfielder Bernardo Silva booked for time wasting.

The booking came two weeks after City's 2-2 draw with Arsenal at the Etihad Stadium, after which Bernardo said: "Only one team came to play football. The other came to play to the limits of what was possible to do and allowed by the referee, unfortunately."

One Arsenal fan wrote: "We going to talk about the 'dark arts' again this week with Man City getting three yellow cards for time wasting 11vs11 at home to Fulham?"

A second said: "The irony of Bernardo Silva being one of the recipients."

A third added: "Apparently people are only surprised and disgusted when Arsenal does it. But it's a completely normal thing when others do it."

And a fourth wrote: "Man City, with 11 men on the field at home against Fulham, got three yellow cards for time wasting. Cmon man, have some shame."

City and Arsenal currently sit second and third in the Premier League table, with both having picked up 17 points from their seven matches this season. Liverpool are ahead of them both on 18 points from their seven matches.
