Arsenal really did not lick honey last night (Saturday) against Wolves, but in the end with the help of 0:2 the Gunners returned, at least temporarily, to the top of the Premier League with 74 points at their disposal, a point away and a game in excess of Manchester City.
“Now is our time to prove what kind of team we are,” he said Mikel Arteta At the end of the game, “We want to take a step forward as a team, as a club and therefore we must leave this week behind us. Want to reach the top? There is only one way to do it, and we must understand it.”
“It was a very important victory,” he added William Saliba“We knew we had to come back and get it, we did it. It’s not easy to play against Wolves, and we kept a clean sheet. It’s not just that we defend well, it’s also the attack. We have to keep it that way.”
Saliva went on to say: “If we fall asleep then the title will escape us, if we draw or lose it will be even more difficult to win the championship. If we want to win the Premier League we need to win all five games we still have left. We want to put pressure on them and therefore we need to win. First of all we focus on ourselves and then we look at others.”
Meanwhile, the former player and who currently serves as a commentator on Sky, Jamie Redknapptold how he sees things: “I think that no matter what happens, Arsenal will win the Premier League next season. They have proven that they can, they are improving every season, they will add a few more players in the summer and they are only getting better. I don’t care what happens next season, They are the favourites. This season I believe that Manchester City will win the championship, but it will not be easy for them. They are not at the level of last year, but they are still the best team in England.”
By the way, Arsenal again did not concede a goal in an away game and thus the Gunners set a record of six consecutive away games in the Premier League with a clean sheet. The only teams that have recorded seven consecutive Premier League games are Chelsea (2008) and Manchester United (2009).
