Tomas Rosicky: Arsenal have ‘maturity’ to win Premier League title

Tomas Rosicky believes Arsenal have the “maturity” needed to win the Premier League title this season.

The Gunners are currently top of the Premier League table and a point clear of second-placed Manchester City after a 2-0 victory over Cardiff in their last top-flight outing.

Arsene Wenger’s are going strong in the FA Cup, too, after Tomas Rosicky scored in a 2-0 victory over north London rivals Tottenham Hotspur at The Emirates in the third round.

I think we have the maturity to do it this year

And the Czech Republic international believes Arsenal have the necessary experience to claim their first Premier League title since 2004.

“It was a bit bumpy when we lost against Manchester City and drew against Everton,” Rosicky told Arsenal’s website.

“But you will always have phases like that in a year so that’s nothing new.

“This team has more experience than it did in the past. We have [Per] Mertesacker, [Mesut] Ozil, who won things in Madrid and the other experienced boys like Mikel [Arteta] and [Mathieu] Flamini.

“Plus the English boys are not kids anymore, they gained experience through the years of playing here so that’s why I think we have the maturity to do it this year.”
