Wait 5 sec.

Glen Murray has offered his perspective on Mikel Arteta’s recent remarks that Arsenal have accumulated the most points in the Premier League across the last three seasons combined.During this period, the Gunners have finished as runners-up in each campaign, with Manchester City and Liverpool sharing the league titles. Despite falling short of first place, the consistency displayed by Arsenal has been noteworthy, and it reflects the progress made under Arteta’s leadership.Arsenal’s Progress and AmbitionsThis summer has seen the Gunners strengthen their squad significantly, underlining their ambition to finally claim the league title by 2026. Consecutive second-place finishes highlight remarkable consistency, demonstrating both focus and resilience over a sustained period. With the additions made during the transfer window, supporters are optimistic that the club can take the final step and move from contenders to champions.Critics have often pointed to Arteta’s inability to deliver silverware during these years, but the stability of his side and their continued ability to challenge at the highest level cannot be overlooked. Murray, reflecting on the manager’s comments, emphasised that Arsenal are edging closer to success and need only refine certain aspects of their game to reach the pinnacle.Mikel Arteta (Photo by Justin Setterfield/Getty Images)Murray’s Assessment of Arsenal’s ChancesAs cited by Metro Sport, Murray said:‘I heard Mikel Arteta saying Arsenal have picked up more points than any other team in the last three years in the Premier League.‘So, they’re doing something right… it’s just that final step, and I suppose as well it’s just being composed in the moment. A couple of times they’ve been knocking on the door, they’ve been so close and just slipped away at the final moment.‘I would have it as a three-horse race plus the wild card of Chelsea because we’re not quite sure what they’re capable of.’Murray’s comments underline the belief that Arsenal are now at a pivotal stage. With consistency already established, composure in critical moments will be key to turning strong performances into titles. The view also places Arsenal in what could be a highly competitive season, alongside Manchester City and Liverpool, while also noting the potential unpredictability of Chelsea.For Arsenal supporters, the message is clear. The club is on the right path, and with their squad improvements and focus, the coming campaign provides another significant opportunity. If the players perform at their highest level, the long-awaited leap from challengers to champions may finally be within reach.__________________________________________________________________________________________ADMIN COMMENTSo here are some simple rules which I must insist commenters follow….You agree not to give any personal abuse to other Arsenal fans.
