On September 28, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta spoke about his competitive relationship with Pep Guardiola, stating that the title race between Arsenal and Manchester City will not affect their personal relationship.
When talking about Guardiola, Arteta said, “My feelings towards him are filled with love, respect, and admiration. I admire the strong team he has built and everything he has done for it. Due to our professions, we are in a competitive relationship, but this does not affect our personal feelings.”
Arteta continued on their friendship: “Our matches against each other will not harm our relationship. Even when Manchester City won the Premier League four times in a row, we still maintained a good relationship. Even if Arsenal wins the title this season, our friendship will not be affected.”
In the past two seasons, both Manchester City and Arsenal have fiercely competed for the Premier League title, but it was always City who emerged victorious. This season, Manchester City and Arsenal remain the two teams with the highest expectations to win the title.
