Manchester United legend Gary Neville has expressed strong confidence that Arsenal are on course to secure the Premier League title, insisting the Gunners are unlikely to “waste this opportunity.”
Arsenal’s narrow 1–0 win over Burnley boosted their title push, placing them on the brink of their first league triumph in 22 years. The result has opened up a five-point gap at the top of the table over defending champions Manchester City.
With Manchester City set to face Bournemouth next, the title race could be decided quickly. A slip-up by City at the Vitality Stadium would mathematically confirm Arsenal as champions.
Speaking on his Sky Sports podcast, Neville praised Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta, stating that a title win would elevate him to “champion manager” status.
