Paul Merson, a former midfielder for England, believes that Arsenal might yet overtake Manchester City by six points in the final stretch of the Premier League.
After a close 1-0 victory at Burnley on Wednesday, City is now atop the standings.
With the same points and goal differential, Pep Guardiola’s team is just ahead of the Gunners in terms of goals scored.
This weekend, Arsenal will host Newcastle in an attempt to regain their top spot.
Prior to City’s league trip to Everton, Mikel Arteta’s team will also play Fulham.
“From absolutely nowhere, Manchester City are top of the league,” Merson stated while speaking on Sky Sports. It’s frightening.
However, Arsenal has to make the most of their two games ahead of City in order to regain a six-point lead. on reapply pressure on City, they must defeat Newcastle and Fulham in those two games. It is essential.
