Piers Morgan has publicly admitted to misjudging Mikel Arteta's capabilities following Arsenal's commanding six-nil victory over Sheffield United.

Under Arteta's guidance, the Gunners have displayed remarkable form since the start of the year, netting an impressive 31 goals across all competitions and only failing to score once in their last eight matches.

Arsenal put Sheffield to the sword

On a memorable Monday evening at Bramall Lane on March 4th, Arteta's side delivered a resounding performance, putting six goals past the struggling Sheffield United.

Notable contributors to Arsenal's dominant display included goalkeeper David Raya, who secured his ninth clean sheet of the season, the most in the division, per Sporting News, and Kai Havertz, who added his seventh Premier League goal.

Both Raya and Havertz, previously criticised in the early stages of their Arsenal careers, have now become pivotal figures in Arteta's squad.

Piers Morgan, a fervent supporter of the North London club and one of the harshest critics of Havertz and Raya, publicly acknowledged his misjudgement.

In a recent post on his X social media platform, Morgan admitted that he was wrong to doubt the talents of Havertz and Raya, as well as Arteta's tactical acumen.

"I doubted Arteta's decision to replace Ramsdale with Raya. He was right," he began.

"I doubted Arteta's faith in Havertz. He was right.

Piers added: "I doubted Arteta's refusal to buy a striker in January. He was right."

"I've stopped doubting," the 58-year-old ended

Ahead of the Sheffield match, which they convincingly won, Arteta outlined a target for his players regarding the minimum points they must accumulate to keep their hopes alive for their first title since 2004, Sports Brief reported.

With 11 games remaining, if the North Londoners manage to win them all, they will amass 94 points, surpassing the Invincibles' tally by four points.
