Arsenal head coach Mikel Arteta has come out to say Arsenal has won the past two English Premier League trophies because they had more points at the end of those campaigns than Liverpool when they won the title this season. Arteta was referring to the fact Liverpool were crowned this season’s champions with fewer points than Arsenal achieved when finishing runners-up to Manchester City in the previous two seasons.
According to him, he said: “Winning trophies is about being in the right moment in the right place. Liverpool have won the title with less points than we have in the last two seasons. With the points of the past two season we have two Premier League [titles],” the 43-year-old said with a smile.
He made the comment before their game against Paris St-Germain which they later loss 2-1 and 3-1 on aggregate. Liverpool, who have 82 points with three games remaining, could yet surpass the 89 points Arsenal achieved last season, and tally of 84 in 2022-23. Liverpool sealed the title with four games remaining in April. Arsenal on the other hand are 15 points adrift in second, and just three points above third-place Manchester City.
Arteta will still face Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday. They have not won major silverware since lifting the FA Cup in Arteta’s first season in charge in 2020. But after reaching the Champions League quarter-finals last season, the Spaniard has guided the club to a first semi-final in the competition since 2009.
