Brentford manager Thomas Frank has said that Arsenal have the capacity to challenge Liverpool for the Premier League title this season.

The Gunners had a tough start against the Bees on the road as Bryan Mbeumo scored in the 13th minute. However, they produced a terrific response. Gabriel Jesus equalised for Arsenal in the 29th minute.

At the start of the second half, the Gunners scored two quick-fire goals through Mikel Merino and Gabriel Martinelli to put the game to bed. Speaking after the game, Frank had fond words to say about Arsenal.

The Bees manager said that Arsenal are picking up points when they are not fully firing and their title race with Liverpool could go right to the end.

He said: “It’s a long season. I understand why Arne Slot is saying ‘we haven’t won anything yet’.

“Liverpool haven’t had a dip yet and that will most likely come, and Arsenal are picking up points when they’re not fully firing.

“It will go right to the end.”
