Former Arsenal midfielder Ray Parlour has insisted that Arsene Wenger will win another Premier League title before he retires, similar to Sir Alex Ferguson, according to the Daily Express.

Parlour was a key player for Arsenal in their golden period around 90s and the turn of the century. He believes that Wenger has put together a squad that could challenge for the title one day:

“I think Wenger can do it,” Parlour said.

“His squad is in great shape having bolstered it with Gabriel. And I believe it is his destiny to do exactly what Sir Alex Ferguson did. To win that trophy one more time and then call it a day.

“Wenger would love to go out at the very highest level and lots of Arsenal fans would be delighted. Certainly that will be what he is looking at.”

Arsenal will be looking to bounce back fast however, following their 2-0 defeat to Tottenham today at White Hart Lane, falling further behind the leaders Chelsea.

The Gunners boss has stated that the team were simply not good enough at White Hart Lane, which saw the Gunners lose for the first time in six games against Spurs.

Arsenal also picked up five bookings in the game some of which were debatable i.e. Monreal and Welbeck’s bookings, something that Wenger seemed disgruntled with.

After the game, Wenger spoke to the media, highlighting his frustration with the referee and the players:

“I think we were not very good and the referee was at our level,” he said.

“I don’t think he had a good day as well.

“We defended quite well but offensively we were not good enough.

“Look for me they created more chances and overall we cannot dispute the game too much.

“The regret we have is we gave the goals away and of course lose the derby is difficult.”

Arsenal were overturned by a brace from Harry Kane, following Mesut Ozil’s goal in the first half to put the Gunners into the lead at the break. This defeat unfortunately allows Tottenham to leap above Arsenal in the League.
