The race for the title of English Championship promises a lot of emotion in the final rounds. Despite his team losing the lead recently, the coach of the Arsenal, Mikel Arteta, remains confident in winning the national. With a game to spare, the Gunners are one point behind the Manchester City – 81 against 82 – and they return to the field this Sunday, against Brighton, at home.
“That’s what we’re here for [acreditar que é possível ser campeão]. Starts on Sunday again. Three games to go, this is the crucial one and now we want to beat Brighton, raise hope and enthusiasm to continue because everything is still up for grabs,” he said.
“Every time you win, that you play well and you feel that you are competing at the level necessary to win this championship, that gives you hope. It’s not in our hands and on Sunday we will certainly need to be at our best again to try to win the game. If we win the game, we’ll be a little closer.”

“[A confiança voltou com a rquipe] playing well, being at the top of the game and raising the bar individually which has been critical and very important when you get to this stage of the season. Once you’ve done that, it has a huge impact on the team’s performance. The team has been playing well, scoring goals and winning games, so it’s a good mix.”
