Arsenal defender William Saliba has delivered a powerful message to his teammates at this crucial stage of the season.
Details: The Frenchman, quoted by Fabrizio Romano, openly admitted that during his four years in London, the team has consistently finished as runners-up in the league table. Now, however, he is determined to break this cycle once and for all.
"I've been here for four years and we've always finished second. If we can change that this season, it will be a massive success for the team and personally for me. I'm confident we can achieve this," Saliba declared.
Saliba's words ring especially true in light of Arsenal's recent dropped points, which saw them lose their comfortable lead in the title race and allow Manchester City to catch up.
It's worth noting that Arsenal are set to play a crucial match against Newcastle today, with kick-off scheduled for 18:30 Central European Time.
Reminder: A divorce cost a former Arsenal African star $25 million.
