In this regard, coach Arteta remained sober, "It's good to make sure to continue to lead, but we are a humble team. We have not really achieved anything yet, and the team needs to continue to improve. This is our goal." Arteta said bluntly that it is too early to list Arsenal as a champion contender.
Zhaka locked the score at 3 to 1
In fact, before the season, almost no one expected that the Gunners would still be at the top of the scoreboard after 8 games. At present, there are still critics who believe that they have taken advantage of the "easy first and difficult" schedule and have not competed with too many strong teams. A reporter asked Arteta directly at the press conference whether it was necessary to defeat other "Big Six" teams ( Manchester City , Manchester United , Chelsea , Liverpool , Arsenal, Tottenham )" teams to make the outside world stop questioning Arsenal. Arteta replied: "100% is like this. When we play such an important game, we will naturally strive to win, but we will also consider some outside voices."
According to the schedule, Arsenal will face the test of a strong team again in the 10th round of the game on October 9, Beijing time, and face the recently poor Liverpool at home.
At that time, will the "Gunner" still use victory to make the outside world stop questioning?
