After the Manchester Derby ended, the topic of Arsenal winning the championship completely heated up.

Previously, there were occasional mentions, but they were mostly focused on a single point, or the emotions were somewhat suppressed, not fully expressed.

But now, it’s possible!

Arsenal could be just one game away from the final championship!

Even if many doubt their ability to defeat Manchester City at home, it won’t affect the fact that more people trust they can smoothly overcome this last obstacle!

Among many hotspots, a long article from The Guardian stood out.

Its title was — ”Why Arsenal can consistently stay at the top of the standings even when not favored by most, and how crucial Ma’el is to this team based on that!”

The content is logically clear and profoundly explains three major reasons.

”Firstly, a good team atmosphere, which is an important aspect that is easily overlooked. Arsenal has not had any internal conflicts reported throughout the season, and the players have a great relationship with the coaching staff.

”Such a team is more stable and focused, with no troublesome matters to resolve, only concentrating on all battlefronts.

”Achieving this isn’t easy. In fact, they underwent significant personnel changes this season.

”From the departures of Fabregas, Nasri, and Klich at the start of the season, to the arrivals of Ma’el, Arteta, Mertesacker, Chamberlain, and Andre Santos.

”Then later, the departures of Shamakh and Arshavin, with Kyle Walker and Henry joining.

”Their starting lineup and rotation underwent almost a complete overhaul from last season, yet everyone gets along well.

”Except for a fight between Ma’el and Gilbert (currently on loan) against Fabregas before the season, there haven’t been any conflicts since, which is rare and valuable.”

”.....”

”To explain the reason for achieving this, I’ll start with Ma’el.

”After earning honors in the Championship, he gained some accumulation and depth, which made him increasingly confident. So when he first joined the team, he established his authority through the departing Fabregas.

”This wasn’t a good method, maybe even crude, perhaps it wasn’t his intention then, just a rush of emotions.

”But it was effective initially, as no one underestimated him anymore or treated him as a child; even the core players and competitors dared not easily exclude him.

”Later, everyone knew he conquered them with his ability and brought the hope of a championship!

”As this light of hope grew stronger, he gradually gained the influence to transform the team and suppress potential conflicts.

”First, when the four newcomers joined, he and Van Persie warmly welcomed them at his home, turning them into players of his camp, which also prevented veteran players from excluding Arteta and the four.

”The same for Kyle Walker; he joined this club partly because of Ma’el.

”All the new signings integrated smoothly into the team and quickly found their positions, delivering immediate performance, which can hardly be said to have nothing to do with Ma’el.

”Secondly, at the beginning of the season, as his tactical position increased and he gradually replaced Van Persie as the primary core, logically Van Persie would have been displeased.

”But he wasn’t... On one hand, Ma’el didn’t give him the chance to feel threatened, solidifying his core position in just a few matches.

”By the time Van Persie realized it, Ma’el had become formidable, and Van Persie no longer felt confident in overpowering him.

”On the other, as he himself said, Ma’el’s brilliance is phenomenal. He doesn’t steal their opportunities, instead creating new ones for them, so why would they fight?

”Van Persie had been with Arsenal for almost 8 years without winning a Premier League title... When the hope of a championship appeared, he naturally sought ways to coexist with Ma’el, even sacrificing himself for honor.

”Others were the same; when the team showed championship competitiveness, becoming a contender, they had to position themselves correctly, or they would be quickly discarded.

”Moving forward together, possibly winning joyously; opposing everyone, and ending up with nothing.

”In short, it’s Ma’el who keeps this team living with hope, making it hard for them to develop internal rifts!

”This is his contribution!”

”.....”

”Secondly, the team’s versatile tactical approach is very evident, as fans who frequently watch Arsenal matches can feel it.
