Expectations from the Gunners, now is not the time to play around, the players must demonstrate excellent performance in games, just like they did this season, their performances was a surprise to everyone, and they will need the same energy to compete next season. However, Mikel Arteta, the coach, will not tolerate excuses or sluggish efforts. He needs all of his players to perform well, and he has set aside a substantial sum for the Emirates Stadium. The Gunners are back in the Champions League, with a tough competition ahead, and the fans are ecstatic and cheering because they are glad to be back in UCL football.
Arsenal last won the English premier league in the 2003-2004 season, it was about 2 decades ago, so it was impossible for Arsenal players to play around where that was the reason they failed, surely they were serious enough when they still had a 5 point advantage over Manchester City but 38 matches that must be played there will be many unpleasant things that can happen such as player injuries and Arsenal experienced that because several players who at the start of the season contributed to making them get a lot of wins had to be absent and second-tier players did not have the same contribution causing failure and also they are a young squad who has quite a lack of experience when under pressure is different from Man City, but I predict that if Arsenal fails again next season then Mikel Arteta's position will be threatened because one of the reasons could be a manager who is less skilled at strategy. And the champions league is not a competition in that Arsenal can do much even they are not as good as Chelsea if it is the UCL because Arsenal are better at the FA Cup.
it is precisely Arteta who has resurrected Arsenal, which has slumped in the last few seasons, I will not blame him even if next season Arsenal cannot win next season.
the ARsenal team is a team in progress and rising from its slump, being able to finish in 2nd place this season is a very good thing for them, it wasn't even imagined from the start, a team inhabited by many young players can finish in 2nd position and compete fiercely with Man City fighting for the title, what a great thing.
