Mikel Arteta has confessed that despite Wednesday’s 3-1 loss to reigning champions Manchester City, he is more confident in Arsenal’s chances of capturing the Premier League title.
City have moved ahead of Arsenal into first position after playing one extra game, but they were not always comfortable during the encounter and finished with a startlingly low 36% possession – practically unheard of for a Pep Guardiola team.
With Arsenal also committing stupid errors that led to City’s goals, Arteta was confident in his squad’s capacity to compete with England’s top team over the last five years.
“After seeing a side that can compete head to head, I have more faith.” “He informed Amazon Prime. “I have more faith in my team.
“The atmosphere and the performance was extremely good if you take away that we gave away three goals. City is the best squad in the world.
“To beat them, you must be above your level. I believe we had them in key times, but games are defined by specific moments, particularly in the box, when they outperformed us.
“It’s not possible to give the goals away the way we did.
“In the end, we were disappointed because we lost. I say we because we misplaced it. It was a thrilling duel between two teams. We gifted them the goals, and we had three chances that we failed to convert.”
Arsenal and City are presently level on points, but Arteta’s side has played one fewer game, and the two sides will square off on fixtures when Arsenal plays Everton on March 1.
