Arsenal has the best statistics, but statistics alone are not enough to become champions. Arteta has focused on the Premier League this season, it is obvious that he would like to achieve such a cherished goal this time with Arsenal, but now everything depends on City, they have one more game in hand. I can say that Arsenal deserved to become champions, but the same goes for City.
Arteta and the whole Arsenal squad including the managements and fans were very serious about the Premier League title towards this end of the season. The lose against Aston Villa is the main cause of this debate of who should win within Arsenal and Manchester City, because with this performance and serious Arsenal have this season, going without a single trophy will be painful because they spent a lot to build the team and are in the right position to compete for the title. If Manchester City win all their remaining matches, there is no more hope for Arsenal.
