Arsenal boss Unai Emery has said that he’s not thinking about breaking any Arsenal records after the club’s win over Sporting CP yesterday.
A 78th minute goal by Danny Welbeck helped Arsenal beat Sporting CP and go to the top of their Europa League.
The win was Arsenal’s 11th consecutive win across all competitions this season. These 11 wins have come after tasting defeat in their first two Premier League matches.
Arsenal’s longest winning streak of all-time is 14 victories that came more than a decade ago. However, Unai Emery is currently not thinking about bettering that record.
Emery said, “Three matches, that is a lot of matches. We are only thinking of the next match against Crystal Palace. We are also enjoying each moment with our supporters. Today we were with them and they were with us, supporters who had come from Arsenal, from London or from here. For us, it’s very important that supporters are with us and enjoy it.
I’m enjoying continuing the work, our process. They have a high demand for us because every match is not easy for us.
Historically, this has been very difficult for us and I know this. We are thinking about three points at Crystal Palace but we know that it’s very difficult to win there. For us, continuing to win is what we want but we know it’s not easy and we can lose.”
Arsenal will hope to register their 12th consecutive win against Crystal Palace on Sunday.
