That will make things difficult for Arsenal,” he added. However, he acknowledged that Arsenal only had a chance this season. “It’s a chance for Arsenal to win it. When I said they could win it, to be honest, I didn’t think they would go anywhere near it. I want Arsenal fans to know I didn’t mean anything negative.”
