Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta refused to write his team off from the battle for the title in England, even though the "gunners" are nine points behind the leader Liverpool in the standings.
The Londoners were very close to the title in the last two seasons, but lost the battle to Manchester City, and this season Arne Slott's Liverpool is performing at a very high level and has built a solid lead. "Things are not up to us. But we have to keep being like a hammer, to be on the line day after day. If someone wins all their games, then we congratulate them and start thinking about next season. But if they don't succeed, and so far no one in history has succeeded, we will be there," Arteta commented before today's match with Brentford.
"Our team is building and adapting to the new circumstances. Now there is a new one - to play more matches with fewer players. But we are ready for that," added the Spanish specialist. | BGNES
