I think this is still not seen because the beginning of the season until towards the end of the season last year Arsenal were also very good it's just that Arsenal's problem in the last few seasons has remained the same with them not really being able to make their consistency last for a season and last season was also like that.
The rise in their performance at the beginning of the season and mid-season was not accompanied by a good performance at the end of the season so it seems that the increase and decrease in their performance can happen quickly and no one can predict it.
If at the end of this season they are like that I think the management still hasn't changed but we still have to continue to wait whether something like this will happen or not.
Yes Arsenal had a very poor end to last season after starting well just like this season, many fans are still holding on to that excuse that they are not genuine contenders. I will also agree that we should wait till then but I will draw my conclusions from their performances so far. One thing Arteta needed to handle in the summer was to increase the squad with better players that can come in and change a game. Players like Rice and Timber were better signings to Cover in the midfield and defense. Last season this was what caused them the league, the Saliba injury and also Partey’s. This two accusations with that of Harvetz who is versatile will provide them much needed depth if the players are fit. Although they should have added a new striker too
I also noticed that Arsenal This season can actually defend a single goal lead to win a game. Last season they dropped points more when they were in winning position and that was what cost them the league. But this season I have seen them hold on to the win with just one goal deficit
