Last season Arsenal also performed extraordinary in the Premier League. Arsenal even beat Man City in several meetings last season in the Premier League and other domestic leagues. And I remember last season many people also hoped that Arsenal would also play very well in the Champions League. But what happened last season seemed to be that Arsenal was not mentally prepared for the big pressure from a big league like the UCL. But this time or this season, I think Arteta has prepared the Arsenal squad much better. And yes, with their current condition, Arsenal will actually be very favored in the UCL. But yes, provided they remain consistent with their performance as they showed in the Premier League.
Everyone surprised against Arsenal, because people are thinking Arsenal will defeat Atalanta, but things done go way, making it difficult for Arteta to get three points, but I think is because of the premier league that they have against Manchester City, that is why they didn't put more effort on the game, making Atalanta control the ball more than them, Arsenal are more focusing on the league more than the ucl, Arteta wants to achieve the league because he has been long in the club, but he as no win the league for the club, am just waiting for Manchester City to drop point so that Arteta can top the league, because am sure if Arteta get the opportunity to lead the league now he won't like to lose any game again, because that make him lose trophy last two seasons that pass. Arsenal and Manchester City have draw there first ucl game against Italy club. Am sure both of them will try and win there next ucl game next week, because they are in good form is just that the opponent defends well and not making them to get into the box to achieve to goal.
Well, it could be as you say. Because Arteta must have felt very disappointed with several seasons in the Premier League, where from the start of the season until towards the end of the season we always saw Arsenal dominate at the top of the standings but at the end of the season Man City always managed to catch up and overtake Arsenal. Well, Arteta definitely doesn't want that to happen again this season in the Premier League. So I would also understand if Arteta wanted to focus more on the Premier League. But I'm sure that in this UCL Arsenal will also perform well. even though in the first match they only got a draw. But yeah, I hope that in the next match Arsenal can win the match.
But the problem is that the next opponent Arsenal will face in the UCL is PSG, which is indeed one of the strong teams in the UCL. And after fighting PSG, it turns out that Arsenal will also face Inter Milan, which is also one of the strongest teams from Italy. I think Arsenal were really tested very hard at the start.
