Roy Keane warns Arsenal to focus on the team they are behind rather than the title race

Liverpool moved one step closer to winning the Premier League title this season after Arsenal could only draw 1-1 with Manchester United last night, leaving Arne Slot’s team 15 points ahead.

The game at Old Trafford started with Bruno Fernandes scoring a superb free kick to give United the lead, but Declan Rice equalised สมัครสมาชิก UFABET วันนี้ รับเครดิตฟรีทุกวัน for Arsenal to end the game with a point each.

The draw leaves Liverpool needing just 16 points from their final nine games to secure the Premier League title, although Arsenal have a game in hand, making the chase almost impossible, especially as Mikel Arteta’s side are yet to win four consecutive league games this season.

Former Manchester United captain Roy Keane believes Arsenal may now have to worry more about the teams behind them than chasing Liverpool, with Nottingham Forest just four points adrift of second place, while Chelsea and Manchester City are also close behind.

“Forget Liverpool for now, Arsenal should be more concerned with the teams that are chasing them,” Keane told Sky Sports.

“They thrashed PSV by seven goals last week, but today there was no confidence in the game. You have to be sharp. If you are Arsenal, what’s the point of being second if you don’t win the trophy?”

Keane also added: “You don’t win the league with 10 draws and Arsenal seem to have lost momentum at the moment.”

For Liverpool, after seeing Arsenal’s result last night, they must have thought that “the Gunners have given up on the title race this season”.
