I was surprise to see Arsenal performance reduce when they season was about to end, at the end of the season which they are suppose to put more effort, that was when their performance started reducing, but everyone knows the problem which Arsenal had, they over used their players but am sure their coach will solve the problem before the beginning of next season. Let’s be honest Arsenal ending the season in second position is a great achievement for them, we know it’s really annoying that they wasted the opportunity which they had, they shouldn’t have allow Manchester City win the league, but let’s just see what will happen next season, let’s hope their performance will get better next season.
It was unfortunate for Arteta that his team was unable to fight it out with Guardiola’s men to the end but I blame it on their lack of good and reliable squad depth but this season will be different because Arteta together with Edu and the board are working to strengthen the team even better for the challenge next season and I believe it will not be an easy one for Manchester City next season.
Manchester City are no doubts still the defending champions for the premier league next season and can win it again. They were able to show last season that they can perform consistently all through the season. They won the league last season because they were clearly better than every other premier league team, not because there were no good teams in the league. Manchester City had no problem winning the premier league last season and will not also have a problem this season if they can play well, they dominate the league already. The league that will give them a problem, were they are not as sure as winning the premier league is the champions league. They may not be able to defend it.
Manchester City have the quality and firepower to do it again but it would be a tough fight this time around even much tougher than it was with Arsenal for the title last season because this summer other top teams including Newcastle who have just joined the top four group are strengthening their squad for the coming season, I doubt Manchester City will be champions again next season.
