Former Arsenal forward, Emmanuel Sheyi Adebayor has tipped Arsenal to win the English Premier League this season.

The Gunners are currently second in the league log, a point off the leaders Liverpool.

Arteta's side will hope they can replicate their form from last season but go all the way to win it.

Adebayor, a key member of Arsene Wenger's team said in jest "We go carry am go home" when asked by popular Nigerian-UK-based Arsenal fan, Dr. Kelechi Anyikude.

"Of course na. Na so e go be. Na so we go do am. We go carry am go home. Arsenal for life," he said as he teased former Chelsea player, Solomon Kalou.

Arsenal missed the opportunity to go back to the top of the Premier League after a narrow loss to Aston Villa at Vila Park.

Villa took the lead at Villa Park through skipper John McGinn, who brought Leon Bailey's cross under control before hammering the ball into the net.

Arsenal had a late Kai Havertz effort ruled out for handball by referee Jarred Gillett, with the video assistant referee upholding the call after a lengthy review.
