YouTuber and boxer KSI has backed Arsenal to finally end their Premier League title hoodoo, insisting rivals are “terrified” of what Mikel Arteta is building in north London.
The online star, a well-known Gunners fan, believes Arsenal have taken a major step forward under Arteta and are now at the level where they can go all the way. KSI also claimed the club’s progress has made them an easy target for criticism from opposing supporters.
“Everyone’s terrified!” KSI said, as he argued that rival fans “hate everything” about this Arsenal side.
Arsenal have not won the Premier League since 2003-04, but have returned to the title fight in recent seasons under Arteta. KSI’s comments come with the Gunners continuing to be heavily scrutinised as they look to turn sustained form into a championship-winning campaign.
Despite the constant noise around the club, KSI made it clear he is confident Arsenal can finish the job and lift the Premier League trophy again, believing the fear and frustration from elsewhere is a sign of how far Arteta’s team has come.
