Arsenal have had a dip in form in recent games. The Gunners lost their leading position against Liverpool. Analyst Jamie Carragher is enthusiastic about Mikel Arteta’s troops. He made strong statements.
“This is a different Arsenal to the one we saw last season. My feeling then was that if the three or four attackers hadn’t improved, Arsenal wouldn’t have won the league. I still believe that. There is more control and This helps defensively, but does it also help offensively?” said the former Liverpool defender.
Criticism of Arsenal
Of the first four, Gabriel Martinelli is the one who struggles the most. Last season, Arsenal had Granit Xhaka as their starting number eight, but this season we see Leandro Trossard and Declan Rice playing there at times. I don’t think this helped Martinelli. You always see the same offensive patterns when they attack. I was wondering if maybe Arsenal aren’t too organised?” Carragher told the British press.
According to him, Arsenal lack real batsmen. Guys who know how to take control in decisive moments. “All Arsenal strikers are top players, but none of them are world class. Bukayo Saka may be, but Liverpool won the title because they had Mohamed Salah. And Manchester City became champions thanks to Sergio Agüero and now it has Erling Haaland.”
No Haaland and Salah
“If you asked me whether Arsenal have world-class players right now who can help them win the title, I would say ‘no’.” “I don’t know where they will come from, but otherwise it will be very difficult to finish above Manchester City,” he says.
