Arsenal Faces Pressure After Draw: Will Past Demons Haunt Them Again?
Posted on February 13, 2026, updated on February 13, 2026
Arsenal's recent 1-1 draw against Brentford has raised concerns about their potential collapse in the title race, reminiscent of previous seasons' late-season struggles. With them currently sitting four points clear at the top of the Premier League, the situation is precarious as they battle to maintain momentum while facing the relentless pursuit of Manchester City.
Manager Mikel Arteta emphasized the need for focus and mental resilience as his team looks to secure victories in coming matches. The Gunners have a history of faltering at crucial moments, and with Manchester City reducing the gap, fans are left wondering if history will repeat itself.
While the statistics suggest that teams positioned with 29 points in the past have usually survived relegation, Arsenal's end-of-season form is crucial. The upcoming matches could either solidify their title run or lead to renewed doubts among supporters. With injuries to key players like William Saliba affecting the squad's stability, the pressure is mounting as every point becomes critical in their quest for the title.
As the team's focus sharpens for the challenges ahead, Arsenal must confront both the external pressures of the title race and their internal resolve to end their season on a high note.
