Arteta is building the Gunners to be more competitive, he has devoted his energy to his team for two seasons. It's not easy to suddenly shift City's dominance, especially as Arsenal always focuses on young players. In this transfer window, Arteta and Edu are planning their team to be much more competitive, their focus is on defenders who have been eyeing to be brought to the Emirates and several other names may be in the negotiation stage or are still being targeted. Arteta is not only targeting pure strikers, but several positions also seem to be of concern to him. such as wingers and midfielders if Thomas Partey eventually leaves. Well, what Arteta is building is none other than to realize the club's mission and hopes of winning trophies in the coming season. That's why Arsenal is still trying to appear much stronger when the competition starts.

Speaking of City, apart from having a very competitive depth of players, they also have an extraordinary coach with a wealth of tactics and systems that have proven to be effective. Naturally, Pep Guardiola has built a strong foundation for his team, so it is very natural that it will always be quite a difficult challenge for his rival teams to compete with Manchester City. Not only Arsenal, even Liverpool also had difficulty breaking City's dominance. Well, both Arteta and Arne Slot, who are currently managing Liverpool, will make efforts to make their team look much better than before. The aim is none other than to become the team at the top of the rankings.
IMO, the moment in this transfer window is not focused on the mistakes of the previous season, but on building a far ideal team. whether it's Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea and even Manchester United.
