Arsenal Can Still Win Premier League Title – Arteta

Mikel Arteta

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is confident that the club can still go all the way to win the Premier League trophy after surrendering the top position to Manchester City.

Sportivationng.com reports that the Gunners failed to win their last four Premier League matches to relinquish the number one position having occupied it for most of the season.

Arteta's men are now one point behind Man City, who have a game in hand.

The Spaniard believes the title race is still on and his players can still go all the way to wrestle the title from Manchester City.

“We have achieved what it was difficult to achieve and we can still achieve the Premier League because there are five games to go and a lot of things are going to happen still,” he said.

“Now the title race is not in our hands anymore. What is in our hands is to try to win the games we have left and the rest is down to City.

“What we have to do is forget about what happened last week, learn from it and move on to the next game with a full tilt at home, with our people, London derby, and put things right.”

The Spaniard added: “We still have the nicest part of the season to play with five games to go. But when I still look at it, this is not over.

“I am incredibly proud and thankful to everyone who has contributed to bringing Champions League football back to this club with five or six games to go, it is something that hasn't happened in over a decade in this football club.

Arteta will be hoping his boys can start their revival against struggling Chelsea at the Emirates Stadium on Tuesday night.

Arteta is delighted to seal a Champions League return after missing out since 2017.

“So congratulations but also thank you for still being upset and not accepting that Champions League is not enough and we want more because this squad is going to demand to get what we want.”
