Robin van Persie discusses Arsenal’s title challenge, believes they deserve to win

Van Persie hailed the Gunners for how they have played this season.

Arsenal are going crazy in the pursuit of the Premier League title and Ex-Arsenal man Robin van Persie believes Mikel Arteta’s side deserves to win it.

The Gunners have continued to defy the odds to show they are good enough to win the Premier League.

Van Persie hailed the Gunners for how they have played this season. The ex-striker said via Express Sport: “Well, both [Arsenal and Manchester United] are doing really well in their own world. Arsenal are doing really well, they play consistent, they play really good football, it’s nice to watch.

“It’s intense, defensively and attacking wise it looks very good. So in my opinion they do deserve to win the league.

“It will still be tough because City are five points off now [if they win the game in hand] and they will push, they will push Arsenal to the last day. If you look at this period of time, this is where every single point really counts.”

10 games are left in the top-flight and Arsenal have an advantage over Manchester City.
