Mikel Arteta will really repeat this mistake this season and they must avoid it before it is too late and they are even further left behind by Liverpool, Aston Villa and Manchester City.
Arsenal are wobbling right now, but it is different from what happened last season, then it was so close to the end of the season, this time around the season is just midway through, so Arsenal has quite a lot of time to get back to their best form and challenge for the title. If you look at the league table, you'd see that there are so many teams in and around the summit and the points difference is not so much, just 6 points separates the top 5, thus nothing is either lost or won at this stage.
Arsenal's difficulties are starting to be tested by playing in the UCL this season, especially since they have to divide their focus with the EPL and UCL so of course there will be key players injured which will certainly be detrimental to Arsenal in the hunt for the EPL this season, their failure in several previous matches was a defeat which made them have to Falling from the top of the standings is certainly very detrimental for them.
I know that Arteta has maintained the performance of all his players so that they can be consistent in the two EPL and UCL matches this season, but unfortunately they are not ready to divide their focus properly. Arteta certainly doesn't want to fail for the umpteenth time in the race for the EPL title this season considering his failure in last season, Manchester City easily took the title from Arsenal. they can still rise
But yes, it will still be difficult for Arsenal to take back the top position of the Premier League standings. Because ya, of course we will also admit that Klopp also has great efforts to make Liverpool strong in the title race . Moreover, at this moment Liverpool have been at the top of the table, when Manchester City and Arsenal get bad results, but Liverpool can still be consistent with good results.
Therefore, although there is still a second half of the season, but it will certainly not be easy for Arsenal to rise . But ya, if for example just to stay in the top four then of course Arsenal will still be able to do well. So thus, for me there is no good chance for Arsenal to be able to return to the top of the Premier League standings.
