Arsenal manager, Mikel Arteta has revealed the advise he got from legendary former Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger as the Gunners battle for the Premier League title.

The Gunners are currently in an epic race with Manchester City and Liverpool for the Premier League title having lose out last season.

Having lose out in the latter stage of last season , Arteta revealed what Arsene Wenger who famously won three Premier League titles at Arsenal told him when he has asked for tips on handling this late stage of the season.

“I have spoken to him a few times. There were certain topics about how they won it and the later stages,” Arteta explained ahead of Sunday’s must-win north London derby.

“He used to talk about that when I was a player,” Arteta added, referencing his spell as club captain between 2011 and 2016. “It is always there in the [mental] hard drive.

“For this time of the season, at the end it is about finding a way to win the game. And that is it. You can do it in various ways when you look at how they won the titles and how they won certain games with very very, very close margins. He always talked about that, about the fine margins. And who is going to step up on the occasion to make it happen.”

Wenger remains the last Arsenal manager to win a league title, when his ‘Invincibles’ side went unbeaten over 38 games during the 2003/04 season.
