Arsenal players remain unfazed by Erling Haaland's dominant performance, says Jorginho in Premier League 2024/25

Arsenal players are not shaken by Manchester City striker Erling Haaland's goal-scoring spree, according to midfielder Jorginho, who expressed confidence in the Gunners ahead of their upcoming Premier League clash with City. Despite City's flawless record in the league, Arsenal has secured three wins and a draw. Haaland has been on fire with nine goals in four league games, including two hat-tricks, bringing his total goals for City to 99 from 103 appearances across all competitions. As Haaland eyes his century in Wednesday's Champions League match against Inter Milan, Arsenal is gearing up for their European campaign starting with Atalanta on Thursday before facing City at the Etihad on Sunday.

“Erling scoring again... it is starting to make us laugh,” the 32-year-old Italian said. “We look because we watch all the games and we love the Premier League." "We watch (City) as well, which is normal. It doesn’t get to our head. We need to focus on us and that is what we are trying to do."

Jorginho praised Arsenal’s mentality, saying it has improved since last season, pointing to their gritty 1-0 win over Tottenham HotSpur despite missing key players like captain Martin Odegaard and Declan Rice.

"You learn more about each other... everyone wants to improve and wants the best for the team. When you put the team in first place I think just good things can happen," he added. "Keep believing in what you are doing. I think we are on the right way."

Arsenal finished second in the league last season, securing a 1-0 home victory and drawing 0-0 away in their league meetings with Champions City.
