William Saliba has acknowledged that Arsenal need to win trophies this season. The Gunners are second in the Premier League table after 23 games, with 13 wins and just two defeats this season.
Mikel Arteta’s team have scored 44 times in the league, conceding 21, and are six points behind leaders Liverpool who have a game in hand. The north London side have also been quite impressive in the UEFA Champions League, where they are third in the league after seven games.
Arsenal have won five and lost one in Europe so far and are a step away from qualifying for the knockouts. Mikel Arteta’s team next face Girona at the Montilivi on Wednesday, January 29, in the Champions League.
Arsenal were knocked out of the FA Cup in the Third Round by Manchester United on penalties earlier this month. They are trailing 2-0 to Newcastle United from the EFL Cup semifinals first leg, with the return leg scheduled next week.
