Former Manchester United goalkeeper Peter Schmeichel declared on ViaPlay that no team can challenge Arsenal for the Premier League title this season, following the Gunners' 1-0 victory at Anfield — their first win at Liverpool's home ground since 2012.

Schmeichel dismissed criticism of Arsenal's playing style, insisting only results matter. "That performance, to come here to Anfield and win 1-0, I don't care about the manner. Now they are winners and I can't see anyone... who can challenge this team," he said, citing Mikel Arteta's squad depth as decisive.

The win extends Arsenal's strong start and delivers a psychological blow to Liverpool at their fortress. For Nigerian Premier League followers, this shapes early title race narratives — but it's November, and Schmeichel's certainty relies on one high-profile result.

Arteta's side has shown resilience in big games, yet a 38-game season tests depth, injuries, and consistency. One pundit's November prediction, however respected, isn't destiny.

With Arsenal top after an Anfield statement, do you back Schmeichel's call or is it too early in the season for such certainty?
