Mikel Arteta has the experience to win Arsenal the Premier League title this season, says Wayne Rooney.
The former Manchester United star said on The Wayne Rooney Show that Arteta seems different to previous title races.
“It’s been a good couple of weeks for Arsenal,” Rooney said.
“I thought the point against Nottingham Forest was really good for Arsenal and then Man City and Aston Villa dropped points and then for them both to drop points again this week, I’m finding it difficult to see anyone but Arsenal winning the title from this stage.
“The squad and the belief they seem to have – I thought Mikel Arteta, how he communicated this week in the media and the messages he was putting out there and to his players, I thought was absolutely brilliant.
“I think that’s the big difference from maybe how he was two or three years ago, he’s got that experience and seems calmer.”
