So when speaking to Sky Sports today, Arsenal fans will be delighted to hear of Van Persieâs prediction when it comes to whoâll win the title out of Arsenal and Manchester City.

âBut the last stretch is always the difficult one. But my personal feeling is that theyâll go for it and theyâll do it and win the league. Itâs been a while, so Iâm happy for them to win it.â
