Jack Grealish sends Arsenal warning amid exciting Premier League title battle
Jack Grealish of Manchester City has issued a warning to Premier League title rivals Arsenal.
The north Londoners have made an outstanding start to the 2022/23 season and are currently five points ahead of second-placed City in the league table.
The Citizens, who have won four of the last five league titles, will face Erik ten Hag’s Manchester United team the following Saturday, and then Tottenham Hotspur the following weekend.
Next Sunday, Mikel Arteta and company will travel to N17 to face Spurs, followed by a week later’s home match against United.
Now, City’s record-breaking signing Grealish has commented on the ongoing title race, acknowledging that Thursday’s 1-0 victory over Chelsea was crucial in their pursuit of Arsenal.
“We just have to try and catch them and try to win as many games as possible and go on a little winning run,” Grealish said when asked about his side’s title chances. “Chelsea was massive, honestly.
“We are chasing Arsenal down and I don’t want to go too much into that, but it is what we know. We have unbelievable players in those forward positions so we know that we are not going to play every single game but we have to be there and ready when called upon.”
Manchester City defender Kyle Walker also chipped in on the contest to lift the trophy come May earlier this week, confessing that Arsenal currently deserve to be at the top of the table. “Full credit to Arsenal, they have played some fantastic football this season so far,” Walked told club media.
“But as we all know, there is a lot of football to be played. We have only played 16 games, so we aren’t technically even halfway.
“There are still a lot of games to play and there are going to be a lot of twists and turns, I believe. Teams are playing each other and you need to take points off the teams around you. We start on Thursday with Chelsea.”
