Mikel Arteta believes there is life at the end of tunnel despite the almost impossible task from snatching the Premier League from Manchester City this season.
Mikel Arteta believes Arsenal can miraculously win the Premier League this season despite trailing rivals Man City with two games left to play.
The Gunners were defeated 3-0 by Brighton at the Emirates making it look impossible for the north London club to bounce back from their slip ups.
The current situation
The Citizens only need to beat Chelsea this weekend at the Etihad to be crowned Premier League champions, which means Arteta will be depending on the Blues to do them a favour.

TRANSFERS Arteta breaks silence on Xhaka amid Arsenal exit rumours
The Gunners boss also spoke about William Saliba’s contract situation.
Pep Guardiola’s men have been in fine form in many weeks, winning 13 straight league fixtures and are still basking in the euphoria of knocking holders Real Madrid out of the Champions League.
Arteta’s difficult task
Arsenal currently have 81 points with two games to play while City are sitting comfortably at the top with 85 points with three games at hand.
Arteta would require City to lose their last three games against Chelsea, Brighton and Brentford which looks almost impossible to achieve.
On the other hand, Arteta’s men will need to secure consecutives wins against Nottingham Forest and Wolves which looks realistic.
