"Arsenal will do what Arsenal do again - not win the title" - Former Manchester United midfielder Yorke on Arsenal's title chances
Legendary Manchester United striker Dwight Yorke has cast doubt on Arsenal's ability to win the Premier League this season, despite Mikel Arteta's side currently leading the table.
Details: In an interview with Snabbare, Yorke stated that the team would once again follow a familiar script: start strong, but fail to go the distance.
"I feel that Arsenal will do what Arsenal always does. There's a strange sense they just can't last the distance. It all depends on the competitions they're in. I'm sure Arteta will set his priorities. He wants to win everything, but it's crucial to clinch the national championship," said the legendary footballer.
For the first time in over two decades, Arsenal are considered the main favourites in the title race. The team has finished runners-up for three consecutive seasons. But now, they have a real shot at going one better. The Gunners lead their closest rivals Manchester City by four points.
After the international break, Arsenal face a tough run of fixtures: on Sunday, they'll host Tottenham, then take on Bayern at home in the Champions League, before clashing with Chelsea in another London derby.
Reminder: Arsenal defender Gabriel will miss up to eight matches due to injury.
