This is not surprising to me, because Arsenal has always dominated most games and I believe that this is there season. They have made some good signing and I am expecting so much from them. I will really be disappointed if they don't win a major trophy this season. Arsenal has always been a contender for the league for the past 3 seasons and I am confident that they can go a step further to win the premier league this season.
This is the best season so far that Arsenal are preparing their squad. I feel they have the potential of competing as a contender but the problem is that the big clubs are also doing worse than them. Liverpool are making signings same with Manchester City including Chelsea and others, teams are getting ready for the season, there might not be dull moment in this season Premier League, i expect the GD to be very small this season.
Arsenal preseason shows the progress, before the season begins there will be much development, more ball came inside opponents box during the match against Milan, despite not converting chances if they work continuously on that aspect, it will be a nightmare for any team once Arsenal enters the 18 yard box.
Arsenal has finally acted like a big club in the market, but Liverpool are on dynasty mode and Chelsea actually have a plan. Even Spurs are splashing £120m+, just to be "in the conversation". This is not the 2010s. You cannot expect anyone to drop off for long
The GD (goal difference) prediction is interesting though. With everyone spending, the league's ceiling is going through the roof, but so is the floor. I would actually expect the gap at the top to tighten. Arsenal went from +62 to +35 last year, and unless Gyokeres absolutely feasts, Liverpool might keep that GD edge. It is wild, but the league could be decided by single digits in goal difference again, like City with Aguero year
Preseason is cool for tactical clues, but durability is everything. Arteta's system chews up energy. he will need to rotate properly or the same old April fade will bite. All eyes on those new signings adapting fast. Honestly, if Zubimendi can translate his La Liga control to English chaos, and Gyokeres delivers 20+ in the Prem, Arsenal might become something. Otherwise, this season is going to be another drama for neutral fans, and a migraine for everyone else!
