This season the fight has been more than serious and it's not about Arsenal finishing poorly, it's about the fact that Manchester City made some mistakes in their time and that's why they let other teams fight so closely, but in the end put things right. All in all, if Manchester City falter next season, Arsenal do have a good chance of winning, but only if they don't deflate themselves
That's true, Manchester City had time lost stability in a few weeks, especially when they lost De Bruyne and Rodri. However, the difference in mentality developed by Pep Guardiola and Arteta explains everything, apart from the depth of the squad that each manager has. Many say that Arsenal has developed for the better in the last two seasons, that's true, but their development cannot surpass Manchester City, that's a fact. Manchester City cannot be stopped by Arsenal alone, Liverpool, Manchester United, Chelsea, Tottenham and Aston Villa must be involved to do it. If they can't do it, then it's no surprise that next season Pep Guardiola squad will be able to defend the trophy again.
