R. Pires: "Arsenal" is the best team in London

Londono "Arsenal" legend Robert Pires believes that his former team is currently the best in the English capital. The Frenchman, who was part of the last "Gunners" triumph in the Premier League in 2004, sees no reason why they couldn't be champions again this season. Under Arsene Wenger, his proteges have collected 23 points in the first 10 matches and are currently sharing the top spot on the league table with "Liverpool" and "Manchester City." "In my opinion, yes, Arsenal is the best team in London. Chelsea and Tottenham are strong, and the Premier League will be tough this season. I don't know what will happen at the end of the season, but, of course, Arsenal can win the title," Pires told Evening Standard. "I think they are a much stronger team than Tottenham, but Tottenham also have a chance to perform well this season." "They play well, especially when they defeated City. Let's not forget that the North London derby between Arsenal and Tottenham will take place this Sunday."
