On August 25, in the second round of the Premier League, Arsenal easily defeated Aston Villa 2-0. Premier League legend Chris Sutton, when discussing Arsenal’s victory, stated that the Gunners have shown the qualities of champions.
Last season, Arsenal suffered defeats in both matches against Aston Villa, which led to a double defeat at the hands of the opponent. This ultimately cost them dearly in their title race against Manchester City, where they fell short by just two points, finishing as runners-up behind the Citizens. In this season’s first encounter, however, Arsenal successfully avenged those losses.
After watching Arsenal’s performance, Sutton expressed his belief in the team’s title-winning potential: “I watched this game and was deeply impressed by how Arsenal overcame such a strong opponent. In this match, Arsenal demonstrated the qualities of champions, and they truly possess the ability to compete with Manchester City for the Premier League title.”
Arsenal has won both of their first two league matches and is currently ranked third, behind Manchester City and Brighton due to an inferior goal difference.
