Africa-Press – Eritrea. <\/strong><\/span>Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta believes the quality of the teams currently competing for the Premier League title is \u201cunprecedented\u201d.<\/p>\n

This season\u2019s top four have amassed a higher total of points collectively than in any previous campaign.<\/p>\n

Tottenham lead the way, with 26 points from a possible 30, two points ahead of both Arsenal and Manchester City and three ahead of Liverpool.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat has happened in the last five years is unprecedented,\u201d Arteta said. \u201cIt never happened with the amount of points and level of the teams.\u201d<\/p>\n

Manchester City overhauled long-time leaders Arsenal to win the title by five points last season, securing their fifth league victory in six years.<\/p>\n

The only side to have beaten City to the top prize during their period of dominance is Liverpool, who won the title with 99 points in 2019-20, winning all but six of their matches during that campaign.<\/p>\n

Arteta, whose side remains unbeaten this season, said there is no point comparing the competition to previous seasons because of the number of high-quality teams now in contention.<\/p>\n

\u201cNow it\u2019s the amount of teams with that level that is increasing and increasing,\u201d said Arteta, speaking before Arsenal\u2019s trip to Newcastle United on Saturday (17:30 GMT).<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s why comparing to the past in this league is a waste of time. \u201cIt\u2019s very different to what it used to be, and that puts the demands of what we do every single day in a different scope.\u201d<\/p>\n

Aston Villa continue to keep pace with the top four and are just one point behind Liverpool, on 21.<\/p>\n

Of last season\u2019s top four sides, Newcastle are five points behind Villa in sixth and Manchester United are two points further back in eighth, behind Roberto De Zerbi\u2019s Brighton.<\/p>\n
