Mike Arteta was seen facing the press conference after his side clashed with Brighton and Hove Albion. The Spaniard brutally enquired about the defeat and his opinion about the title race. 

Mikel Arteta pointed towards the title race with Manchester City. Lamenting yet not losing hope the coach says the team needs to perform ‘very differently’ in the next fixture. The Gunners’ boss mentioned that they have to hold on unless the race is “mathematically not over.”

The 41-years – old is aware that the second position of the team is secured. With that being said, Arsenal can perform in the Champions League. The same even though not a proper substitute for losing the title race but can act as a consolation. 

Arsenal’s dream to win the Premier League title after a long time has probably come to an end. With the Gunners seeing a merciless defeat from Brighton and Hove Albion, the team moved to second position with 36 games. On the other hand, Manchester City moves to the top spot with 35 games with 85 points.
