Journalist Fabrizio Romano has now revealed what he expects to see from Arsenal in the Premier League title race this season.
Arsenal are currently sat at the top of the Premier League table.
Liverpool and Manchester City are right up there with the Gunners, and the trio are currently locked in a tight Premier League title race which looks set to go down to the wire. All three clubs have played 28 league matches in the campaign so far, so have just ten fixtures to go.
Arsenal currently lead the way with 64 points, by virtue of having beaten Brentford on Saturday. On Sunday, Liverpool held Manchester City to a 1-1 draw at Anfield. The Reds currently have 64 points to their name but are behind the north London outfit on goal difference, whilst Pep Guardiola’s reigning champions have 63 points on the board.
The title race is too close to call at this stage, but Mikel Arteta will believe that his men have what it takes to go all the way. However, there is very little margin for error. Arteta has set his points target which he believes will be enough to make Arsenal champions. The Gunners will have to be near perfect for the rest of the campaign.
How will Arsenal fare against Liverpool and Manchester City in the title race?
On paper, in many ways, Arsenal have been the best footballing side in the top flight of English football this season. They have scored the most goals and conceded the fewest. The Arsenal defence has been in a league of its own, and the Gunners have been scoring goals for fun in recent weeks.
Manchester City, meanwhile, know exactly what it takes to win. They secured an historic treble last season, and have triumphed in the Premier League in five out of the last six seasons. They are more than capable of putting together an extraordinary winning run in the run-in.
For their part, Liverpool are currently riding the crest of a huge wave of emotion, as they know that this will be Jurgen Klopp’s final season at the helm on Merseyside. The galvanising factor of the German coach’s impending departure may well be enough to carry them over the line.
All three clubs have plenty of quality in their playing squads and look determined to give this titanic three-way fight their all.
Fabrizio Romano has now given his view on the battle for Premier League supremacy. As quoted by Caught Offside, the reporter said, “obviously a lot of people are saying the draw is a good result for Arsenal, but I still believe title race will see all three teams involved until the final games.”
“This looks like being an insane race, with just one point separating the top three. Credit to Liverpool, who were fantastic even with many players out, but also Man City were able to resist in a difficult game at Anfield. As for Arsenal, they showed good character to win the game late on against Brentford, and I expect them to be there.”
