Arsenal is now popularly known as “we’ll try again next season club” always next season, they Neva learn from their mistakes and Arteta is being unnecessarily stubborn towards signing a proper striker a no.9 how do you want to win a trophy without a nine not that you even have a proper striker playing as false 9. The game tonight so many crosses looking for who to make good use of it, so many missed chances. They did everything except getting the desired goals, I would expect the club management to ensure they get a proper striker in the transfer window and also they’re in need of a right wing forward to support Saka.
Well, anyone could call them any name they wish even "the league bottler club", but what matters foremost is that this Arsenal team has really been transformed by this very Arteta. They just have to keep trying and learning from their mistakes and in due time trophies could start flowing in just as it was with Manchester city, today they're UCL winners after many times of trials.
On account of a natural striker, I do agree with you about Arteta falling short on that area because it was very imperative he signed a striker in the January transfer window but for reasons personal to him he didn't and it has really cost him not just in the UCL but equally in he EPL against Liverpool. I believe he would see reasons to sign a proper top 9 now and even add to a right winger to peer with Saka to the left.
I would say, they do not really have a "superstar". I mean they have bunch of good players, but Arteta is the one that brings these people to better place. If you take any of them, and I mean ANY of these players, and put them in lets say Wolves or Fulham whatever, you will see that they would be just yet another ordinary player there.
The talent by Arteta is that he took players that he exactly knows he needs, and put them at the right place, and got 100% out of them, when 11 players give 100% and fit perfectly, you end up with a much better result. That is the most important part, if you can do that (which Arteta does) you are going to get better results. Arsenal is a great team, and Arteta is doing great, but now they need a superstar, without one, you can't be this good. Look at Liverpool they are great without Salah too, but without Salah, they wouldn't be winners. So somehow, Arsenal needs to find some star and buy that player to take themselves further.
