EPL: Wenger speaks on Arsenal winning title under Unai Emery

Arsene Wenger believes Arsenal are capable of winning the Premier League title this season under his successor, Unai Emery.

The Gunners have had an impressive start to the 2018/2019 campaign, with Emery’s men sitting fourth in the Premier League table, four points off leaders Manchester City.

Defeats to City and Chelsea put Emery under immediate pressure, but the team responded with 11 wins on the bounce in all competitions, before last weekend’s draw at Crystal Palace.

Asked by talkSPORT if his former side could win the league this term, Wenger replied: “Why not? When you look at last season at home we won 15, drew two and lost two – it’s away we were not good enough.

“But overall the quality’s there. They have a chance – but at the moment we have some other teams who look very strong as well.”
