Arsenal was about to finally bear Manchester City and win the Premier League but again just like the last season they failed and Manchester City won the Premier League title just like they won the last season.
This is not new since they lost just like the last season. The race between Arteta and Guardiola is very interesting because they have even the experience of working in Manchester City when Arteta was younger and he was working with Guadiola to be more experienced. Now Arteta is even racing with Gaduila however his knowledge and his experience were obviously not enough.
I would say Arsenal are the cause of their misfortune, losing the title last season and repeating it this season is all on them but this season had a different story, they were almost close to getting their hands on the trophy closer than last campaign but not close enough. Only if they had won those games they lost and drew we won't have been talking about all these now. I mean losing to Villa was one of the mistake they made and it all started there, I would prefer the Gunners to always be available in all league cups, that was what gave City the edge over Arsenal.
To me I'd say Arteta have every experience just that luck wasn't on his side, just this EPL title to come to him is another different thing for him but I'm happy for him on how he transformed the team to be in the best shape they are now, the Gunners and the fans only have hope on their lips, a hope of winning the league next season.
