Arsenal Manager Arteta Sets 90-Point Target to Win Premier League Title

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has set a clear target for his team to win the Premier League title. According to Arteta, the Gunners will need to accumulate at least 90 points in order to secure the championship. Currently, Arsenal is in third place, five points behind leaders Liverpool. To reach the target of 90 points, Arteta's side will have to win all 12 remaining games. However, they face tough away fixtures against the champions, Brighton, Tottenham, and Manchester United. Last season, Arsenal finished five points behind Manchester City, despite leading them by five points after 26 games. Arteta emphasized the demands of the league and stated that anything under 90 points would be very difficult. He expressed confidence in his players' renewed focus and determination, as they have started the year with six consecutive Premier League wins. Arteta highlighted the importance of continuous improvement and the desire to win every game. In terms of team selection, Arteta mentioned the possibility of pairing midfielders Declan Rice and Thomas Partey together for the first time since the Community Shield. He praised Partey's impact and expressed optimism about the potential of a powerful midfield partnership. Overall, Arteta's clear target and the team's renewed focus indicate their ambition to challenge for the Premier League title.
