West Ham boss sends warning to Arsenal ahead of huge London derby
Arsenal may be chasing Premier League history, but West Ham manager Nuno Espirito Santo insists his side are fighting for something even bigger ahead of Sunday’s clash at the London Stadium.
The Gunners travel across London knowing victory would move them one step closer to winning their first league title since 2004, with just three matches remaining this season.
After reaching the Champions League Final in midweek, Arsenal now face what could prove their toughest remaining domestic test, especially against a West Ham side battling desperately for survival.
The Hammers currently sit 18th in the table and are only one point away from climbing out of the relegation zone, meaning they head into the match needing a result just as badly as Mikel Arteta’s side.
Nuno insists West Ham are ready for Arsenal
Speaking ahead of the game, Nuno made it very clear that his players fully understand the size of the occasion.
As quoted by Sky Sports, the West Ham boss said:
“We know it’s going to be hard, but we’ve proved to ourselves at West Ham nobody gives up.”
Nuno also acknowledged Arsenal’s quality and achievements this season, particularly after their run to the Champions League Final, but stressed that West Ham’s own mission remains the priority.
“The boys are working well, they’re going to be ready,” he added.
From Arsenal’s perspective, this is exactly the type of fixture Arteta will be warning his players about following the emotional high of beating Atletico Madrid.
