±οΈπ£οΈ| Liverpoolβs legend Michael Owen on Arsenal vs Liverpool clash:
βI hate to say this, but Arsenal are the best team in the Premier League. this is genuinely the best side in the country right now. Why people still pretend otherwise is beyond me. To completely nullify Liverpool and hold them to zero shots on target and zero xG over 90 minutes is incredible. No club has ever done that to Liverpool in Premier League history.
Yet, people still want to write them off with labels like 'Set-Piece FC' or 'Dark Arts FC' and call them purely defensive. But look at what they actually do on the pitch: whatever system or tactics you throw at them, they adapt. They know how to grind out draws, they know how to snatch wins, and they know how to go toe-to-toe with anyone. Whatever you bring to the table, they have an answer for it.
Mikel Arteta has done an unbelievable job with this squad. Itβs high time people drop the narrative and give Arsenal the respect they deserve as the best team in the leagueβ
