Former Arsenal man Lauren has urged the current side to handle pressure better if they want to win the league.
Arsenal has a huge chance to be champions at the end of this season, but it has not been easy for them to win the title.
They have suffered several setbacks on their way to winning it and continue to struggle in some games, but the Gunners remain six points ahead, albeit Manchester City has a game in hand on them.
The Gunners are not ready to leave the top of the league table, but they seem to suffer when under too much pressure.
Lauren has now advised them to handle that better if they are to emerge as champions at the end of the campaign.
He says via The Sun:
“Right now, Arsenal are 9/10 at coping with the pressure.
“But to get over the line and win the title, they need to reach 10/10 and see out the three points in every game, like they didn’t manage at Anfield.”
Just Arsenal Opinion
Pressure is a huge part of the game at this stage of the season and Lauren has experienced it enough, so he knows what it means.
Our boys must improve from the draw against Liverpool because we need results in games against Chelsea, Newcastle and Manchester City.
It is a tall ask to go through Newcastle and City at home and expect maximum points. These are solid teams which have been there before. They seem to buttle under pressure and that is normal for a young squad to go thru that patch. Although they have some pockets of few squad members who are experienced, but the majority are still young.
They have a great potential though and the future looks very bright. This depends on them keeping the Arteta and some few experienced players. I also think the exposure to Champions League next season will assist them to grow in experience. This should be their aim for now. If the Premiership comes, it will be a bonus.
I don’t think it’s the pressure as much as it’s facing good sides. Anfield was a tough game, simple as. If we play at our best we can beat tough sides as we have done but also sometimes you have to hold your hands up and give due credit
