Roy Keane was vindicated for praising Arsenal's mentality at the end of the season after they rounded off their campaign with a comeback victory over Southampton.

The Gunners concluded the season on a high note with a 2-1 win, courtesy of Martin Odegaard's decisive strike.

Despite Arsenal wrapping up their third consecutive runner-up finish in the league and making it to the Champions League semi-finals, their accomplishments were somewhat eclipsed by a 17-point deficit behind Premier League winners Liverpool.



However, Keane admitted to being impressed by the Gunners refusing to let their heads drop as the season came to a close.

Before the final matchday, former Manchester United star Keane lauded Arsenal's dogged determination, demonstrated by their dramatic comeback in their 2-2 draw with Liverpool earlier this month.

However, the ex-United captain was not as complimentary about Liverpool's approach after becoming Premier League champions with a few games to spare.

"Credit to Arsenal, everyone is criticising them towards the end of the season, but they came back against Liverpool," Keane said on the Stick to Football podcast.

Liven up a little bit!"

Keane's critical comments were proven right as Liverpool wrapped up their season with a 1-1 draw against FA Cup champions Crystal Palace.

Despite clinching the league title in his first year in charge, Liverpool boss Slot is anticipating a difficult battle to retain the Premier League trophy next season.

"We know it's going to be tough again, it was already very tough this season," Slot said.
