Arteta confident
LONDON. — Arsenal captain Mikel Arteta is confident his side’s opening English Premier League fixture against Crystal Palace today will mark the start of a sustained challenge for the title. The past 10 years have seen Arsene Wenger’s team achieve a top-four finish on every occasion, but not once have they been strong enough to pip either Chelsea, Manchester United or Manchester City for pole position on the final day.
Yet Spanish midfielder Arteta believes that could change this season.
The arrival of marquee signing Alexis Sanchez from Barcelona, coupled with an impressive pre-season that culminated with a 3-0 victory over reigning champions City in the Community Shield last Sunday, has generated a wave of optimism at the Emirates Stadium. — AFP.
