EPL title: Arteta’s concern for Arsenal
After the Gunners pushed their lead at the top to five points on Saturday, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is hoping that a six-week break in the Premier League season does not come at the wrong moment for his team.
Just hours before, Manchester City suffered a shocking 2-1 home loss to Brentford. Martin Odegaard scored twice as Arsenal defeated Wolves 2-0. Since 2003-04, Arsenal has not won the league, and for the previous six years, they have failed to even place in the top four.
Regarding whether Arsenal would be penalized by the break, he said, “I’ll cross my fingers and hope for the best.
“When everyone returns, we’ll evaluate our situation and go on from there.
“I would have trained tomorrow, but they’re not here.”
I hope everyone who is traveling to the World Cup has a safe trip and takes care of themselves. It doesn’t get much better than playing for your country, so I hope they enjoy it,” Arteta remarked.
