After having spent most of the season as leaders of the Premier League, Arsenal has gotten into trouble in recent days, to the point of losing first place in the table to Manchester City and being left almost without chances of winning the title.
Given this, his coach, the Spanish Mikel Arteta, has come out in the face of criticism and has assumed the blame for the mistakes made while asking the fans to keep their hopes up, although he acknowledged that winning the English league is something that It no longer depends only on your team.
“We can still win the Premier because we have five games left to play, and many things can still happen,” said Arteta at the press conference prior to the game against Chelsea that will be played this Tuesday corresponding to date 34 of the tournament.
“Now, the title race is no longer in our hands. But what remains is to try and win the remaining games, and the rest will depend on (Manchester) City”, added the ‘Gunners’ coach.
On the other hand, the Spaniard stressed that the culprits of this debacle are not his players and that contrary to this, he is happy with the great job they did from the beginning. However, he urged them to give their all in the five remaining games and learn from everything they have experienced this season.
“I am incredibly proud and grateful to everyone who has helped make it five or six games from the final. We have to forget what happened last week, learn from it and move on to the next game,” said the Arsenal coach.
