Artete says Arsenal is still fighting for the title

London – Mikel Artea said he would give up in the Titier League’s title race “Over My Dead Body”, even though he acknowledged that Arsenal is experiencing a difficult historical challenge to catch Liverpool.

Gunners, traveling to cope on Wednesday in Nottingham Forest with big flights, is 11 points behind the leaders run after they lost in West Ham on the weekend, the day before their rivals win at Manchester City.

The result was a bitter disappointment for the artery, whose team hit by injuries has finished as runners in the city in each of the last two seasons.

But the head of Bullish Arsenal told his pre-Meci press conference on Tuesday that he will give up the challenge of the title “Over my dead body”.

The Spaniard said he would “go home” if he no longer believes that Gunners could catch Arne Slot’s Liverpool.

“Mathematics is possible. You are there. You have to play at every game,” he said.

But the artery recognized the enormous scale of pregnancy while Arsenal relieves their first 2004 Premier League title.

“If you win this Premier League with the circumstances we have, you will probably have to do something that no one has done in Premier League history,” he said.

He added: “After all, you will have to set up a quantity of numbers to win in this league and we will have to reach this number if we have any chance to do this.

“But we will definitely continue to try.”

Arsenal, which has a game in hand over Liverpool, has been derailed by a series of injuries, especially in the before.

Kai Havertz and Gabriel Jesus went out for the season, while Bukayo Saka is going to return next month, being marked since December, and Gabriel Martinelli is also unavailable.

Captain Martin Odegaard missed 12 games with an ankle injury earlier in the campaign.

The artery said he was proud of the resistance and ambition of his team, saying that the defeat at home with 1-0 compared to West Ham was a “very difficult to take”.

But he added: “The reality is that there are so many games to play and you have to go back to it.

“You have to have the levels and consistency and hunger to go again and this we will do on Wednesday.”
