And I think even the arsenal fans themselves know this because they have an outstanding issue that have been faced with them for time now and they can't seem to really get their finger wrapped around the issue which is the torment that Manchester city has given to them in terms of always snatching the premier league from them even with their very best effort and this is one of the major reason many feel they are not yet upto standard of winning the UCL.
A team can win the champions league without winning their domestic leagues, Liverpool has done this before and Real Madrid the biggest winners of the championship league have lost their domestic league but won the champions league many times. Arsenal are capable of winning the champions league if they are determined and have a good squad depth. Arsenal always start their season very well but they start having issues when the season has gone half as they don't have quality players on the bench that they can use when their starting eleven isn't giving the coach the results he wants. Instead of trying to sign starting players that'll be very expensive, arsenal should hurt for backups.
It's not all the positions in Arsenal are having problems with their bench players. Arsenal still need a minor change in the main squad. This is especially true for the attacking line. This flaw on Arsenal's atk line caused them to struggle to get the trophy last season. Arteta, as Arsenal's coach, he needs to solve all problems.
Focusing only on benched players won't guarantee you a trophy. Arsenal did well last season in EPL. But, their mentality was weak when they competed in the UCL.
Arteta must also be concerned about their mentality. And again, it's not all starting players are forcing you to pay expensive prices for them. The quality of the player is directly related to how big their price is. And i think there's nothing wrong with recruiting a new player to play as starting line up.
It's very obvious that Arsenal need new attackers. This is why Arteta must split his focus. It will help his team rebuild its quality.
