Arsenal prepares to face Aston Villa this weekend, defender Ben White has made it clear that the team is focused and motivated to secure a crucial victory. Reflecting on their previous encounters with Villa, White emphasized the importance of rectifying past mistakes and delivering a strong performance.
“We need to put that right and get that result this time,” White told Arsenal official website, stressing the team’s determination to overcome their recent struggles against Unai Emery’s side. Arsenal’s last win over Aston Villa came in February 2023, and the Gunners are desperate to change that narrative.
White’s motivation is fueled by the team’s impressive start to the season, with a solid 2-0 victory against Wolves. He believes that the hard work and dedication shown in training are beginning to pay off, and the team is ready to take on any challenge.
“It was an amazing start for us to win and get back into the flow of things, starting where we left off last season,” White said. “We’re not worried about anyone else, what they’re doing, or sending messages. We’ve got to continue to do what we’ve been doing and reach higher levels as a team. If we play the way we can, we’ll beat anyone.”
As Arsenal heads to Villa Park, White and his teammates are fully aware of the challenges that lie ahead. Aston Villa’s aggressive style and quick counter-attacks will require Arsenal to be at their best. However, White remains confident in the team’s ability to rise to the occasion.
“They’re all big games, no matter who you play against. The points you drop anywhere in the season, you can put it back to that,”White explained. “There are games that we drew that we should’ve won and they’re two points that we should pick up. It’s always a tough game when you get there. There are a lot of duels, it’s very aggressive. They’re very quick and want to play on the counter, so we’ve got to be ready for that.
With a renewed sense of purpose and a clear goal in mind, Ben White and Arsenal are set to give their all in the upcoming clash against Aston Villa. The Gunners are determined to secure a victory and continue their pursuit of Premier League success.
