Liverpool Crowned Champions with 82 Points as Arteta Reflects on Arsenal’s Near Misses

Liverpool were crowned champions after a dominant 5-1 win over Tottenham last month. They secured the title with just 82 points. Meanwhile, Arsenal finished with 89 points last season and 84 the year before—yet missed out on the title both times.

Arteta on Timing and Trophies

Mikel Arteta is still chasing his first major trophy since winning the FA Cup in 2020. He believes timing is crucial in football success. Despite strong campaigns, Arsenal fell short as Manchester City claimed the title.

Now, the Gunners have another chance to shine. They face Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League semi-final second leg. A win could send them to the final—and keep their silverware hopes alive.

Arteta: “Right Moment, Right Place”

Before the crucial clash, Arteta spoke about the fine margins in football.

“Winning trophies is about being in the right moment, in the right place,” he said. “Liverpool won the title with fewer points than we had in the last two seasons. With those points, we would have two Premier League titles.”

He added: “Hopefully, we’re in the right moment, in the right place in Paris tomorrow—to earn our spot in the final.”

Can Arsenal End Their Season on a High?

Arsenal’s Premier League heartbreak has made them hungrier for success. The Champions League offers a golden opportunity.

Will Arteta’s men seize the moment? A victory over PSG could set up a historic final—and finally bring the glory Arsenal fans crave.

Key Takeaways:

  • Liverpool won the title with just 82 points—fewer than Arsenal’s last two seasons.
  • Arteta emphasizes timing as a key factor in trophy success.
  • Champions League semi-final vs. PSG could be Arsenal’s chance for redemption.
