Arsenal defender Oleksandr Zinchenko spoke to BBC Sport chief football news reporter Simon Stone about how "demanding" the Premier League is:

How much City pushed us extra in the last two years, it shows how demanding the league is and where the level is. I used to say the Premier League is the toughest in the world.

Every single opponent can beat each other and every game is like a final here. This is not just words, this is true. Even in the beginning of the season, you can lose some games and drop some points and think you will be back. It shows how demanding this league is. You need to be at 100 or even more in every single game.
