There are many more Premier League debatable, but it doesn’t look good for him Arsenal as far as his title aspirations are concerned. The team led by Mikel Arteta visit St. James’Park to face a Newcastle who have not won a match in the English league since mid-September, the match was played before the match on city and the Liverpool and therefore having the opportunity to put pressure on those of Guardiola and to those Arne Slott. But rather the opposite happened, because the Arsenal They lost (1-0) and it can be said that they dropped in the race for the title.
He Arsenal He went into this match with the aim of revenge after seeing how he fell short by two points in the last stage of the rivalry against Liverpool (2-2) and remembering the defeat suffered against Bournemouth (2-0), but they are far from being a consistent team capable of lifting the title. Of those Newcastle It is enough for him to have intensity in duels and not make too many mistakes to tie the fact that he misses the injured player a lot. Martin Odegaard. because Declan Rice and Mikel Merino These are very good midfielders, but the spark of Norwegian creativity is another story.
The only goal of the contest came before the end of the first quarter of an hour of play. In particular, in the 12th minute, when a good cross in the area was found, in the penalty spot, completely unmarked, a Alexander Isaac whose header beat David Raya. The Spanish goalkeeper couldn’t do anything, but he left the game in a very bad place Saliba and Gabrielthat far from bothering the Swedish attacker left the house without sweeping for each other.
From there, with many games ahead, the reaction of the Gunners was expected, but it did not happen. Of course, not strong enough to prevent local success. Neither are the bank’s moves Mikel Artetawho introduced the young man earlier in the field Nwaneri (17) that Gabriel Jesus and that was not used Sterlingwas enough to turn the score on the scoreboard. Yes, there was a clear opportunity in addition, with Declan Rice as the protagonist, but it remained an anecdote.
He Arsenal He promises them to be very happy at the beginning of this course, and it is too early to eliminate him completely for the title, but of course things become very complicated for him.
