Bukayo Saka insists that everyone at Arsenal has learned their lesson from last season when the team faltered late in the title race.
Under Mikel Arteta’s leadership, Arsenal has been contenders in consecutive seasons, also vying for the title last term.
In 2024, the Gunners have been the standout team in England. However, in the latter part of last season, they experienced what some fans might consider a significant setback.
Arsenal squandered a substantial lead to Manchester City, allowing the Citizens to clinch the title for a third consecutive time.
But this season, the Gunners are hitting their peak at the opportune moment, and Saka asserts that they have gleaned valuable lessons from their past experiences.
He said, as quoted by the Daily Mail:
‘We know the win takes us back on top. We’re building momentum.
‘Last season was not great, but it was great in terms of we learnt our lesson. Games like this we need to put to bed. This year we feel more comfortable. I feel the team is better.
‘From the keeper to the striker, you saw Kai how hard he’s working. We know how we’re going to handle it. We go to win, that’s the mentality we must have.’
Just Arsenal Opinion
We have been a much more mature team this term and that is a sign that we are ready to be champions.
Saka is spot-on, he and his teammates are looking much more prepared to win the title this time around.
This will be a Ding dong battle straight to the line, Saka is right we are better for the experience.
It is for that reason, Whoever blink first may never recover
With Liverpool Managed to draw against Man u, I think 6 wins and a draw will be enough for Arsenal to win the league . Because i do not think both City and Liverpool can win all the 7 games remaining .
If we beat Villa , then we have 2 tough away games at Man U and Spurs . Now if we get 4 points from these 2 games , I think we can beat the other 4 teams comfortable ( Chelsea H, Wolves A , Bournemouth H and Everton H)
So basically beat Villa and then it will be down to 2 away games needing 4 points
City will win their remaining 7 and we shall do the same. City will not drop points!
@Sunny who says we can’t win it all?. All we need to do is take every game as they come, our only obstacle could be Arteta gambling with Zinchenko in certain games that he shouldn’t play.
…am telling you. How did you know… Only if Arteta wont with Zinchen in games. That is wahat cost us the league last season.
Now that winning the EPL is 100% in our hands, this is where the mentality will truly show.
Out of the remaining fixtures:
– Arsenal have 3 more teams to play that are in the top 6 and 1 to play in the bottom 6
– Liverpool have 2 more teams to play that are in the top 6 and 1 to play in the bottom 6
City have 1 more team to play that are in the top 6 and 2 to play in the bottom 6
Man City have the easiest fixture list on paper. I feel we may just have to win all 7 to win the PL trophy.
Really? one win in five matches in December portrayed otherwise.
Lets go for 7 win and nothing short!.
