William Gallas reckons Arsenal “have to” beat Manchester City at the weekend if they want any chance of winning the Premier League title this season.
“To improve, they have to finish first this season. I don’t think that Arsenal will be champions . I’m not really that worried about Arsenal when they play against the biggest teams – we know they can hurt anyone. The problem is that we have to compare them to last season.“They dropped too many points making silly mistakes. From what we’ve seen of Arsenal so far this season, it doesn’t look like they have improved. Last season, they beat Tottenham home and away.
Gallas added: “I think William Saliba would be better equipped at dealing with Erling Haaland if Arsenal were going to look to do something similar and man-mark Haaland. Saliba can mark him properly. “The question is: do Arsenal have that confidence? It’s very easy to say they have it, but now they must show it. I want to see Arsenal showing this confidence. I want to see Arsenal show it, not just in this game, but in one month, in two months. When they get to the top, they need to stay there.”
