Arsenal manager, Mikel Arteta must win the EPL tittle next season, William Gallas has aaid. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, it is obvious that EPL isn’t at an elite level with no major trophy after 5 years, and until he wins the EPL title, he would never be regarded as an elite manager.
Gallas added that it took Xabi Alonso 3 years to win three titles in Germany, so it is possible.
His words, “After five years on the Arsenal bench, we can say that Mikel Arteta isn’t at the elite level. He needs to win the Premier League in order to reach that. It looks like he is going to stay, so I think the club is giving him one more chance next season. If he doesn’t win the Premier League then, after six years, we can say he isn’t in the top level of managers. Look at Xabi Alonso, three years at Leverkusen and he won three titles.”
WOW.
