Arsenal are chasing their first title in over 20 years under manager Mikel Arteta who sees his side 9 points clear at the top of the Premier League table with 7 games remaining.
Arteta’s side are now entering a crucial stretch in the build‑up to the final day of the season on May 24th as they aim to secure the title as well as the Champions League and FA Cup.
Jesus, who won several titles with Manchester City, opened up on Arsenal’s chances at lifting the iconic trophy which is something he thinks Arteta deserves.
“After the first one it was easy, you know? There was a mix of ten or more players (at City) who were very experienced, more than 32 years old, but they all said, ‘ok, I want it’.
“Today at Arsenal, it is more young players. Obviously, they never won the Premier League before, but it is coming, I hope, and then everything will change.
“We win the first Premier League, then everything will be much easier because the pressure is still there.
“The club, Mikel deserves it a lot because it is not easy to be in charge of this project. After last three years being second, imagine his head, you know? And the players, the staff. All the three times in this period, let’s say February to end of the season, it stays on our heads.”
Manchester City are still in contention for the title and have a game in hand over Arsenal who next face Bournemouth at home next Saturday where 3 points could extend their lead to 12 at the top.
