Why Arsenal won’t win EPL trophy - Mourinho

AS Roma boss, Jose Mourinho says current table toppers Arsenal won't win the English Premier League title for the 2023/2024 season.

The former Chelsea gaffer made this known in an interview on the Obi One Podcast which premiered on Monday, December 18.

Despite Arsenal's good performances, Mourinho was dismissive of the 2003/04 champions when he was quizzed on which of the three sides he felt was most likely to win the English top flight.

“Man City 51% [chance of winning the league] and Liverpool 49% [chance of winning the league].”

When Arsenal was brought into the conversation, the Portuguese retorted with a blunt: “Nah.”

Honestly, rivalry apart, I would like them to win,’ he said.

The Gunners have been in a good run of form of late despite a slip to surprise dark horse in Unai Emery’s Aston Villa side.

Mikel Arteta’s men showed composure to see off Brighton and Hove Albion on Saturday with goals courtesy of Gabrile Jesu and Kai Havertz to keep them on top of the log one point ahead of Liverpool who drew stubborn Manchester United side on Sunday.
