Arsenal Fans Will Blame Arteta If They Don’t Win The EPL – Gallas

Arsenal fans are waiting to jump on Mikel Arteta if the Gunners fail to win a trophy this season, William Gallas has said. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, even if things are currently calm because Arsenal is still in the race for the title, he expects a very bad reaction from the supporters once it is confirmed that they cannot win the league.

Gallas added that fans will be so angry if Liverpool wins the EPL despite the promise shown by the Gunners in recent years.

His words, “Right now, the fans still believe that Arsenal can win the title because they have to believe. When you are a fan, you have to believe until the end that you’re going to be champion. If Arsenal don’t win anything this season, most fans will say that is the reason. At the moment, the club is still in the race and everything is calm, but if that changes, I think some of the Arsenal fans are going to be furious and will be looking for someone to blame (for not buying a striker). I think most of them are just waiting to jump on Arteta. To express their emotion about that problem. I didn’t really realize how some fans were so angry with Mikel Arteta about it. I know it’s social media and that isn’t exactly the environment for rational thought, but I’ve seen some crazy things on there. I was surprised. I didn’t expect that. As I said, unfortunately, if Arsenal doesn’t win anything, especially the Premier League or the Champions League, I don’t think some fans will give any credit to Michel Arteta. I think the fans will still be mad because what they expect, what they want, is to win the Premier League.”

WOW.
