Arsenal boss Arteta can use FA Cup triumph as springboard to compete for Premier League titles, says Keown

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta can use the club's FA Cup triumph as a springboard to compete for Premier League titles, according to Martin Keown.

The Gunners slumped to their worst top-flight finish in 25 years in 2019-20, after failing to recover from a disastrous start to the campaign under Unai Emery.

Their fortunes began to change when Arteta was drafted in to replace Emery in the Emirates Stadium hot seat, but they still ended up falling short of the European places.
