Former Arsenal coach, Arsene Wenger speaks on Arsenal chances to win EPL

Former Arsenal manager, Arsene Wenger has broken his silence regarding the club, and backed Mikel Arteta’s team to challenge for the league.

The Frenchman has been notoriously silent about the club’s fortunes since he was moved on from the job in 2018 for Unai Emery.

Speaking about the job Arteta has done, 72-year-old Wenger said: “I would say they are moving in the right direction.

“I honestly think there is no weak position in the team… they are young, promising players and they have bought well this year.

“There is no completely dominating team this season and Arsenal has a chance with the potential that is there.

“We used to be in the top four and why not again? You cannot even rule out the fact that they can fight for the title and hopefully they can do it.”
