Erling Haaland talks about the moment when Arsenal lost their 2022-23 Premier League title

Manchester City forward, Erling Haaland has pinpointed the moment where he thinks Arsenal lost the Premier League title last season. In the 2022-23 season, Mikel Arteta's side emerged as the title contenders, having a comfortable lead on the top of the table before April.

The Norwegian attacker recently said that he knew that the Etihad outfit would win the Premier League after they defeated Liverpool 4-1 in April. Mohamed Salah gave the Reds an early lead over Pep Guardiola's side (17') but they failed to stop City from scoring as they eventually lost the match.

"For me, it was the Liverpool game at home, I was so nervous. They went 1-0 up but but if I knew if we won this [match], we would win [the title]," Haaland said via The Mirror.

Arsenal led the table for 248 days but Manchester City managed to pull off an excellent run towards the end to win their third title in a row.
