Scholes: Arsenal has the potential to win the championship, and we have seen football that can win the championship against Newcastle

As of now, Arsenal ranks first in the Premier League standings with 16 points. Scholes praised the Gunners' performance in an interview.

Scholes said: "I think you can feel the arrival of a great team, just like we felt about Manchester City a few years ago. This Arsenal has not won the league title yet, but you see their performance, you think they are very good."

"At the beginning of the season, I didn't see Arsenal having such potential until they were against Newcastle, they relaxed a little and started to let Eze play, and Odgau returned to the team."

"Suddenly, they played the kind of football you expected to win the league title. Although I think they have the ability to win the championship, you can never be sure until that day is truly realized."
