Manager admits losing title to City ‘still hurts deeply’Spaniard was at PSG for 18 months during playing career
Mikel Arteta says it still “hurts deeply” that Arsenal missed out on the Premier League title, but he is happy with the progress he has made after taking over a club that had lost its “soul”.
The Gunners led the Premier League title race for 248 days this past season before they were eventually chased down by Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City, who went on to win the treble, leaving Arsenal trophyless for a third straight season. Arteta admits it still pains him that his side fell short but feels there were plenty of positives to take from last term, and from his tenure overall.
