Aaron Ramsdale has revealed that Mikel Arteta called a players’ meeting after Arsenal's 3-0 defeat against Brighton at the Emirates Stadium - to tell them this season has still been a success. The Gunners held an eight-point lead at the top of the table heading into April but now sit four points behind Manchester City, having played a game more than the reigning champions.
City can claim their fifth Premier League title in six years with a win against Chelsea at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday afternoon. Pep Guardiola aimed a sly dig at Arsenal's mentality as his team chase down a historic treble - that would match Manchester United's achievement in the 1998/99 campaign.
Ramsdale hit back at criticism suggesting the Gunners had 'bottled' the title this season and remains excited about his future at the Emirates Stadium. The English goalkeeper recently committed his long-term future to the north London outfit, signing a deal until 2026, with the club having the option to extend this by a further 12 months.
