Arsenal is not good when it comes to keeping first place, they showed that last year. We will see if that experience will help them this time.
Arsenal are not in a province problem yet, they can handle themselves because they're competitive for the league title. Arsenal headcoach, Mikel Arteta is doing great without limits and he's one of the best coach currently in England this season. I've closely watching how Arsenal improvement this season, really a tough long run and tight spot for the club. Arsenal have tried their best to make good running winnings but it will always end up not corresponding with the current situation.
Arsenal improvement started since last two seasons where they were unable to make it to the Champions League but end up in the Europa League due to slight injuries of their key players at the end of the season. This means that, squad depth affected them.
Last season, Arsenal were about winning the Premier League title because they performed credibly well from the beginning of the season until the end where injuries to some of our key players also affected the journey; which also means lack of experience and squad depth effect.
This season, Arsenal have one of the best squad in the premier league, some of their key players were injured and they still come this far this season, and they have enough squad depth to compete for the title; I am sure this season will be different and Arsenal will try to win the Premier League this season. Winning Manchester City will help Arsenal a lot.
