Defender Emmanuel Eboue has underlined the Gunners’ confidence ahead of the Manchester United vs Arsenal match in the Premier League at the Old Trafford today.
Manchester United have not been at their best this season, and Eboue believes that his side could hence look to pounce on the Red Devils’ weaknesses to grab another 3 points in the league table. Speaking to reporters from the official site of Arsenal Football Club, the Ivorian midfielder said:
“For me, I always believe in ourselves. If we play our football and are not scared, (then) why can’t we do something (against Manchester United)?
“We always believe in ourselves, and then I always believe in our team (Arsenal). We are positive for the game; we know it will be difficult not only for us, but for both teams.”
A win for the Londoners will place them 3 points above second-place holders Manchester City after 17 games played. Anything less than a triumph for the home side will however push Manchester United closer to a slip from the top 4—although they will still be having an extra chance afterward thanks to their game in hand.
