The Premier League title chase isn’t over yet, according to West Ham striker Michael Antonio.
In his Footballers Football Podcast, The Hammer discussed the title fight and highlighted why Arsenal, like Manchester City, still has the best chance of winning the 2023–24 title
Antonio’s argument that Arsenal is still in the title fight originates from the fact that the Gunners have had a difficult run of results, losing three league games in December and drawing another, resulting in them dropping 10 crucial points.
This bad run led some to believe the Gunners had lost their way and that they would never be able to sustain the title chase unless they did something amazing in the January transfer window.
Arsenal have yet to do anything in this winter transfer window, but their resounding 5-0 victory over Crystal Palace suggests they are still capable of pulling off wins. And Antonio suggests that if they can build on the foundation they established with their emphatic win last weekend, they will have a chance to sustain the title race.
“I wouldn’t say they are out of the title race. I think it’s too early to say that,” he stated. “If they can turn it around with their performances, I think it’s a great opportunity for them. It’s like saying City is out of the title race; you would never say that because every year they have gone on a run.
“Arsenal had a blip over Christmas, but if they can pick back up, this year nobody is running away with it, so I feel like there is always an opportunity. Anything can happen.”
It is excellent for neutrals to believe Arsenal still has a chance of winning the league. But it would be even better if Arteta and his boys proved them correct.

Now that Klopp has announced he’s leaving Liverpool at the end of the season, it’s between them and City in my opinion. I think we’ll be fighting for top four, nothing else apart from the CL of course.
Oh really? Can you please elaborate?
I think City and Liverpool will be first and second, not necessarily in that order and we will be in the mix for top four with spurs and Villa.
With the world class player now in training for us and the long awaited mouth watering team up with Declan Rice is looking real , whoever writes us off does so at their own peril.
