Arsenal's Impressive Goal Difference and Title Race Ambitions

Mikel Arteta acknowledges that goal difference could play a crucial role in Arsenal's bid to win the Premier League this season. Despite currently sitting in third place, just two points behind the leaders, Arsenal boasts the best goal difference in the league. Their recent run of high-scoring victories, including 6-0, 5-0, and 4-1 wins, has contributed to an impressive aggregate of 25-3 since the start of the year. Arteta believes that every goal will count in the tight title race and emphasizes the need for his team to be ruthless and efficient in front of goal. He also highlights the importance of maintaining a high level of performance, especially when making substitutions to re-energize the team. Arsenal's next match against bottom club Sheffield United provides an opportunity to continue their goal-scoring form, as the Blades have conceded the most goals in the league this season. Arteta acknowledges the challenge posed by Chris Wilder's well-coached team and expects a tough match. In terms of team news, Arsenal could have Thomas Partey and Oleksandr Zinchenko back from injury, while Jorginho is set to enter contract negotiations following his impressive performances.
