PL: Arne Slot sees Arsenal crowned Premier League champions
With two games to go in the Premier League, Arne Slot believes Arsenal have a decisive edge over Manchester City in the title race, notably highlighting the Gunners’ defensive solidity.
Arne Slot believes Arsenal now have the tools necessary to outrun Manchester City in the Premier League title race. The Liverpool manager spoke this Thursday at a press conference, on the eve of the Reds’ trip to Aston Villa FC. With two games to go, Arsenal sit top of the table with a two-point lead over Manchester City and look well positioned to clinch the crown.
For Arne Slot, the Gunners’ defensive solidity could make the difference in the final sprint. “The team that will probably win the championship, in my view, is Arsenal”, the Dutch coach said. This team is capable of defending very deep for long periods while remaining extremely solid. That, in my view, is one of the main reasons it could help it win the title, he added. Under Mikel Arteta’s leadership, Arsenal have established themselves this season as one of the most balanced sides in the English league, combining collective mastery and defensive discipline.
