The Arsenal team played well last season. And Mikel Arteta played an important role behind it. His match technique was outstanding. At the same time, Mikel Arteta was able to strengthen the bond between the players. This is why Arsenal's performance was stable. But at the end of the season, Arsenal team lost truck due to injuries of several players. This is why Arsenal failed to win the title. Mikel Arteta must try to stabilize the team. At the same time, the squad should also be strengthened by adding more experienced players to the team. Arsenal also need to tighten up the defense a bit.
They played very well, better than expected, better than two seasons ago. Two seasons ago, they lost a fourth position to Tottenham at a last match day. In the past season, they led the league at a first position in most match days of season and only lost it to Manchester City in very last match days. Evetually, they ended it in top four, better than two seasons ago, and even completed at a second position.
It's impressive coach performance from Arteta as he managed to surprise many clubs in Premier League and even did it with Pep Guardiola and Manchester City. He only failed in a second direct match with Manchester City when Pep made a big chance with John Stones.
Likewise with me, and at that time I hoped that Arsenal could win the Premier League last season but for some reason towards the end of the season Arsenal's performance decreased and was also inconsistent
They had a better consistent well performance than two seasons ago as if they did not have such performance, they would have not led the league too long.
but I admit it because Arsenal's rival at the top of the standings is Manchester City which does have a good squad and equal replacement players, and Arsenal doesn't have a squad depth like Manchester City. Likewise, my hope is that Arsenal can still compete at the top of the standings this season, and what is certain is that this season there will be many surprises from other clubs.
It is true but Arteta and Arsenal don't have big budget for transfer like Manchester City and they only started to play well in the last three seasons. Their squad are building up and it needs support from their club performance too. If they can maintain good performance in Premier League, ends it within top four, and in Champions League, they can go a bit far, their club income will be bigger. It will be foundations for their squad building process.
