Declan Rice, an Arsenal player, has said that the pressure to “win every game” in their pursuit of trophies causes his anxiety levels to skyrocket.

After goals from Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard were negated by James Justin’s double, Mikel Arteta’s team prevailed tensely over Leicester on Saturday.

However, with tensions running high at the Emirates, Wilfried Ndidi’s own goal gave Arsenal a slight advantage again, and Kai Havertz’s late goal sealed the three points.

The outcome put the Gunners firmly in the running for the Premier League championship, and Rice stated after the game that he and his teammates understand they can’t afford to make any mistakes.

“You know the pressure of playing for Arsenal, you have to win every game,” he told reporters, according to The Mirror. “The anxiety is through the roof.”

Declan Rice has acknowledged that when he plays for Arsenal, his anxiousness is unbearable.

 

Arsenal secured a dramatic victory against Leicester to continue their Premier League title bid

Mikel Arteta was pleased with his team’ display of resiliency and mental toughness.

However, I’m really happy with how many scenarios we produced and how well we played the game. The outcome ought to have been considerably higher after 2-0.

However, this is the Premier League, and this is Leicester’s caliber. They scored two goals. However, I’m rather pleased with how we handled that circumstance thereafter.

“Emotionally extremely restrained, carrying out our assigned tasks, and our relentless assault of the areas.” We deserved to win the game, in my opinion.
