Arsenal defender William Saliba has delivered a powerful message to fans, insisting that the Gunners are determined to turn admiration into silverware after another trophyless campaign. Speaking about Arsenal\u2019s defensive partnership, Saliba labelled himself and his centre-back partner as the \u201cworld\u2019s best CBs duo,\u201d but stressed that such claims mean nothing without titles to back them up.<\/p>\n
The French international admitted frustration over finishing the season empty-handed and made it clear that the squad\u2019s ambition is firmly set on winning every available competition. \u201cI am tired to finish the season without nothing in my pockets,\u201d Saliba said, underlining the hunger within Mikel Arteta\u2019s side to finally get over the line.<\/p>\n
Arsenal came agonisingly close to success last season, pushing Manchester City deep into the Premier League title race while also competing strongly in domestic cup competitions and Europe. However, Saliba believes near-misses are no longer enough for a team with Arsenal\u2019s quality and expectations.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy pocket was empty last year, now we want to win everything,\u201d he added, naming the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup and Carabao Cup as key targets. While acknowledging the difficulty of competing on multiple fronts, Saliba insisted the team is ready to give everything on the pitch to achieve their goals.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
