Mikel Arteta was asked whether he would be frustrated if Arsenal lost the title race or if he would be happy with the progress of his team.
“My brain tells me when talking to the players that we are lifting the Premier League,” said a defiant Arteta.
“That’s what my brain is doing at the moment and I want to follow my brain and my gut.
“This is the way I want everybody to think as well. Hopefully, we can achieve it.”
