Manchester City midfielder Rodri has offered his prediction on the Premier League title race this season following City’s dropped points against Chelsea yesterday.
The Citizens were unable to overcome a determined Chelsea side that seemed poised for a victory at the Etihad before Rodri intervened with an equaliser for the defending champions.
This result underscores that City is susceptible to dropping points, providing confidence to Arsenal and Liverpool in the title race. Both of these clubs had secured victories in their respective matches earlier in the day, and City could have overtaken Arsenal with a win against Chelsea.
Now, there’s a risk of City finishing the season behind Liverpool if the Reds maintain their winning streak. However, Rodri is adamant that neither Liverpool, Arsenal, nor City will win every remaining league game they have left in the season.
He told the the BBC:
“There’s still a long way until the end of the season. We have to win against Brentford.
“We were on a very good run and we know none of us three [City, Liverpool and Arsenal] will win every game until the end. We have to have strong mentality and move on to the next one.”
Just Arsenal Opinion
Rodri knows dropping points against Chelsea was a big blow to them, but we do not expect him to admit it.
We now have to keep winning and hope they and Liverpool drop more points to help us get back to the top of the standings.
“…will win every game”
Rodri, brace yourself because Arsenal is poised to lift the EPL trophy this season!
In the end there are two teams likely to determine the PL race.
1) City, because they play both Liverpool and Arsenal
2) Sp*rs because they play ALL three teams in succession!
All three teams will drop points, question is is who to whom!
Yes! I agree as it concerns our campaign in the Epl this season. For, us Arsenal SHOULDN’T be coined by Rodri into believing that us won’t win all our remaining 13 Epl matches of the season.
But I say YES! Us can where others like Rodri’s Man City and Liverpool can’t win all their remaining Epl games of the season.
But drop valuable points that will give Arsenal the advantage to mount to the top of the table and sit there as leaders unmovable. As us continue winning to season’s end and become the Champions.
In the meantime, us SHOULDN’T allow ourselves to be distracted with imaginary talks. Which doesn’t hold any water in it. But us SHOULD focus seriously on our next Ucl match away to FC Proto to beat them. And beat them resoundingly well in the match on Wednesday night unfailingly.
And as a result, make the 2nd leg match a mere academic exercise.
It is the *us* for me. 😂😂😂
for arsenal we must beat city at etihad nomatter what
Rodri,Pep and everyone at City always play down thier own ability and shout up the teams they play against in public,I suspect in private they are supremely confident let’s face it they did the the treble last season !
But football is unpredictable which is why we love it so come on you gunners let’s surprise them.
Smirk! Fair enough. I’m hoping we be the team to break his winning streak record of appearances by beating City at the Etihad. Alongside KDB and Haaland, all in action. COYG!!!
Arsenal will win EPL wether you like it or not
