The Gunners were in a commanding position last season before being overtaken by Manchester City.
Martin Ødegaard has called on Arsenal to use the pain of last season’s Premier League heartbreak as motivation to come back stronger. The Gunners were in a commanding position for much of the season but were ultimately overtaken by Manchester City in the title race, finishing second.
Ødegaard, who captains the team, acknowledged that the disappointment of falling short after being at the top for so long was a tough pill to swallow. However, he believes that Arsenal can use the experience as fuel to challenge again in the upcoming season.
“We’ve learned a lot from last season,” said Ødegaard. “We showed we can compete at the top level, but we also know that we need to be even better to get over the line next time.”
The Norwegian midfielder is determined to help lead the team to greater success and insists that the squad is ready to fight for the title once more. Arsenal have made some key signings and are focused on building a team that can sustain a title challenge throughout the course of the season.
