Arsenal hero and Tottenham villain Sol Campbell thinks the Gunners will win the league after their 4-1 North London Derby win.
After Spurs were beaten 4-1 by Arsenal on matchday 27, the last thing the Lilywhites would’ve wanted to hear is what Campbell thought of the contest.
It’s been almost four years since Tottenham last beat Arsenal in the Premier League, but even more concerningly, it’s been almost two months since Spurs last won in the league at all.
Igor Tudor noticed the differences between Arsenal and Spurs in his first game in charge, the main one being that the Gunners are fighting for the Premier League title, and Tottenham are flirting with relegation.
The Premier League title race is what Campbell focused on at full-time, and Spurs and Manchester City fans won’t like what he said.

Arsenal’s poor start to 2026 has given Manchester City an advantage in the title race, as if Pep Guardiola’s side win all of their games, the title is theirs.
It’s that simple, but Campbell thinks that the Gunners will make things difficult for City to achieve their goal.

“Eze,” Campbell said boldly when asked to name his Man of the Match.
He added, “Gyokeres came close; it’s about time he turned up. Those two goals are going to do him a world of good, amazing.”
