Arteta reveals why Arsenal will not win Premier League title this season

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has revealed why the club wouldn’t win the Premier League this season.

According to Arteta, the Gunners need to improve at both ends of the pitch to emerge winners.

Arteta’s comment comes after Arsenal’s title race took a hit against West Ham.

The Gunners suffered a 2-0 defeat Thursday despite Arteta’s side having 30 shots on goal and 77 touches in West Ham’s box.

Arsenal have since dropped to the second spot on the league table.

“There’s no panic, it’s about trying to do more and do better and win games,” Arteta said. “If the team is playing like this, then you’re going to go and win a lot of games.

“If we don’t improve in the boxes, then no [we won’t win the league]. Because at the end, that [the West Ham result] is what it is.

“But generating the rest, it was a record. So I don’t think there are many teams in the league who have done that over many years, so it’s something positive I think.”

Meanwhile, Arsenal will return to action on Sunday when they face Fulham.
