In the quest for the Premier League crown, renowned Arsenal figure Paul Merson emphasizes the importance of winning three critical matches in their upcoming games.
Arsenal finds themselves trailing behind table-toppers Manchester City by a mere two points as they gear up to face Wolves in a pivotal fixture on Saturday.
Last weekend, Mikel Arteta’s side missed the opportunity to claim the top spot following a disappointing 2-0 loss at the hands of Aston Villa at their home ground.
Merson, in conversation with Sky Sports, believes that all is not lost for his former team.
According to Merson, “Arsenal still harbor a faint glimmer of hope.”
He points out, “They are slated to encounter Wolves, Chelsea, and Tottenham in the upcoming week. Securing victories in these three crucial matches could potentially steer them towards clinching the Premier League title.”
He adds, “The capability is certainly within their grasp. However, it ultimately boils down to the players and how they respond to these recent setbacks.”
