Ex Manchester City player Lescott claims Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal lacks the experience to win the league.
The former Premier League defender instead believes Liverpool and Manchester City are way ahead of Arsenal in terms of experience.
Arsenal are currently third on the league log with Liverpool and City in first and second place respectively.
Lescott said, via TBR:
“I think it’s more important for Arsenal [experience] that will be a factor for them. Liverpool have been there and thereabouts, they know what it takes to win. Obviously new members of the squad haven’t won the league but the Klopp factor, last season, Anfield is obviously an intimidating place regardless.”
“So the experience for Arsenal will be a factor but for Liverpool and City, they’re used to winning and we see them go on runs of 10-12 games of wins. I just think that’s the standard now and I put Arsenal third because I haven’t seen them produce a run of ten wins in a row which is the new normal.”
