I know a lot of people will think I hate arsenal but not really this is football and arsenal as been in a business for a very long so they should make use of the experience. Arteta as nothing different to offer, this season because for the past two seasons nothing as changed they are still maintaining their position. This season starting August nothing will change. They should continue making excuses. Arteta use saka too much that is performance have dropped and arteta needs to learn from pep, no club have the best players compare to Manchester and their team work pays a lot. I remember when foden was been compared with Saka but not anymore, if saka was in form then we would have found it challenging to win the premier league at ease because I know what he can do. Lets up he gets back in form next season, even if we don’t win the premier league I won’t be bothered to much because we have won it so many times.

I think the main reason why the England team had a bad Euro season probably came from coach Gareth Southgate. We cannot just name and blame a player like Saka. Although coach Gareth Southgate has an excellent team of players, it is clear that they are a team full of instability. Speaking of Saka, the Arsenal star played prominently on the right wing and scored an extremely important goal for the Three Lions in the quarter-finals against Switzerland. And in the final, Bukayo Saka's performance tormented the Spanish defense. Saka's great speed and quality crosses helped England equalize 1-1 with a goal from Cole Palmer. I don't know why you said that Saka was a bad player throughout the tournament. Look at Foden, Harry Kane, or even Bellingham, Have they played better than Saka?

Up to now, Saka has been a key player for coach Arteta since he was appointed Arsenal's head coach in 2019. I believe Arteta still maintains that opinion after the Euro season has ended.

No doubt about Saka doing well next season but I think Arteta should not take any chances that's if he wants to remain on top like staying at the top 3 teams that's competing for the title and believe me when I say this, it will be very hard for Arsenal to be at their very best if they don't get goals at every big games. With the way things are and how we are not hearing of teams like Aston Newcastle and the others in the transfer market doesn't mean they're not prepared for the battle ahead.
Arsenal on the other hand are always known to be slow when it comes to amending the team, they did well last season with the recruitment of Rice and some other players that's something new but they shouldn't stop and feel relaxed that the team is balanced, even Gabriel Martinelli is someone who needs to be replaced or better still sell him because I think he has lost form completely in front of goal, the Gunners have lots of work to do as it is.

Talking about pep guardiola future, though their are already rumours in place that he may leave Manchester city at the end of the season, but it's still a rumour, and just as you rightfully said, the picture is going to be more clearer towards the end of this upcoming season, but if he eventually leaves Manchester city, it's definitely going to be a big blow to this Manchester city side, because you can't find a manager that is better than him right now.

Then as for Liverpool, to be sincere with you, I haven't seen how slot usually set's out his team, but what I actually knows is that the Liverpool I know under klopp will be very different compared to slots Liverpool, but would they be better? That's what we are actually going to find out next season.

Lastly, in my own point of view, right now the only team that I believe can challenge this Manchester city of this season title is arsenal, because if you take a look at the rest of the top teams, they aren't strong enough to maintain the high level of consistency to challenge the citizens, except arsenal, but I still feels like Manchester city will  win it again come if care is not taken.

Now many sources are writing that this will be Guardiola’s last season in City, and I think that these may not only be rumors, he spent a lot of time in the team and may want to change something or move to another location. It’s interesting how Guardiola will comment on this, but I think we’ll find out somewhere closer to the end of the season, but for now he needs to think about becoming champions again.

As for Liverpool, I am also skeptical, because I expect that Slot, even if he does not want to change anything significantly in the team, he will manage the team differently, not like Klopp, and therefore the result will also be different. So I don't expect Liverpool to be a worthy competitor for City this season. Maybe Arteta will try to do this again with Arsenal if they manage to have a more or less stable season.

You can't understand what I'm talking about, I'm not talking about the Bologna defender, that's not what I'm concerned about. Talking about Saka and how poor he has been in this competition, I have a feeling that he might not do well this very campaign we're about to enter and not only about him but players in the England squad like Foden, Harry Kane or even Bellingham, their performance in this just concluded competition was not what many expected of them so going into next season they might not do well same to the main player I focused on which is the Arsenal man Saka, the work load should be reduced by getting someone to come into play. Arteta is trying to make excuses about the transfer market, it has been difficult but he need to dig deeper to get better players, the season is just by the corner so something need to be done and fast.
Sometimes you agree on something and you still act like you're not in support of what someone is saying, if you feel I'm framing things up why then do you think Saka needs a competition on right wing? Be straight forward when you talk football, is your take but try to be plain. And I'm not talking about the attacking department but the right wing where we have Saka running for the Gunners, all I think is that Arteta is trying not to let go any player that will become a loss to the team.

In fact, because Liverpool and their new coach make it impossible for them to compete fiercely with Manchester City.
Let's just look realistically at what is experienced by other teams, especially in the Premier League, that once there is a change of coach, the team will start from the beginning again and everything needs a process and time again, that is possible for Liverpool to happen so I don't think that they will surpass the strength/performance of Manchester City.

 Manchester City is a pretty strong team now, in fact they are the strongest team in the Premier League, so don't compare it with teams that are currently building or want to develop.
If Pep Guardiola is still the coach of Manchester City then they will remain strong, regardless of whether they can defend the EPL title or not, they will still be at the top of the standings.

You are very correct about everything you have analyzed, this is the time for arteta to begin putting his squad in place to get ready for the league ahead which is next month, they have ro fix all they are fixing now and not to make excuses when the time is set. Saka was actually not good in his performance a s expected of him going by what he used to be at Arsenal but I saw it on the other hand that resulted from the confliction of talents, not forgetting that the England squad is packed with talented players so much that if they are not able to create a good harmony within the shortest period it becomes a problem for them trying to blend. England wasn't even winning their games impressively, rhey were just scaling through gradually till dey got to the finals, so I saw it like a team problem so back at Arsenal saka may do well again.

Competition in the Premier League is very tight, and you need to know that Manchester City are not easy to beat. Their strong performance makes their game very good and difficult to beat. Even though Liverpool gets a new coach, it doesn't guarantee they can compete better because no one knows what will happen when a team has a new coach, it's just that the coach will definitely give their best to get better results than before, if they want to. dominating the Premier League I think it will be very difficult including Arsenal.

Manchester City will remain consistent in their game if they are still managed by Pep Guardiola while for Chelsea of ​​course they will not experience changes for the better if they still cannot be patient in the process, of course they must be patient to find their best game under the guidance of their new coach because indeed everything needs time to develop. Not only Chelsea, even if a team has quality players but they cannot be patient, it will be difficult to develop because there is no instant way to get better results.

Despite having player that was Injured throughout the season, they still did well and must have impressed lots of fans, I wonder which excuse you're talking about or you just frame things up? They have never given excuses rather, Mikel Arteta has always take responsibility for whatever happenings and failings.
Just as Mikel Arteta said, the transfer window is much more different this time around, but then they're still sure to make moves. They should be getting the a defender from Bologna all signed up.

In terms of Saka, he needs competition over that right wing when he returns to Arsenal, but lots have been said and nothing has been done about it. I was expecting him to be substituted out of the game yesterday but they did otherwise. Not just the role for Saka, they need a new striker, one who score goals and also a sqaud player.
Having no much options in goal cost them game like West Ham United and Fulham as Gabriel Jesus blew the chances he had all together.

They can only buy when they sell a player like Nketiah anyways.

Isn't that normal though? Like when he took over at 2019, were they some amazing team that everyone expected them to win? In fact, for the past two years they have been the closest to winning the title for the past god knows how many years.

I think Arteta is doing a good job and he should keep his job, Arsenal should feel lucky to have him. I get that it may not feel like that at times because they keep on missing, but I rather have a chance to win it and miss, then not have a chance at all. If they fire Arteta, they are risking about getting some bad manager, who may finish 7th and then they will feel at ease since they won't have any close calls. This is why I think it's quite obvious that we are going to see Arteta keep managing this club for a long time.

Hopefully next season Arsenal can get a little luck so they can become champions in the Premier League. Because it is true that what Arsenal has done in the last two seasons is quite a good effort and it also shows that Mikel Arteta is a coach who still cares quite a lot about the performance of the Arsenal team so far. Apart from that, the important point for Arsenal next season is that they must be able to break the teams that are trying to dominate the league throughout the season so that Arsenal really has no obstacles to becoming champions even though their chances may look the same as other teams.

Pep Guardiola even always praises Arteta. And Pep always seems proud of the good results Arteta has produced at Arsenal. Because after all, Arteta is one of his students in the world of coaching. In fact, I still remember when Arteta first came to Arsenal and at that time the season ended quite badly for Arsenal but at that time Pep was still optimistic about Arteta and even Pep still thought that if Arsenal continued to keep Arteta then good results would come to Arsenal and Now everything has been proven to be true that Arteta is able to make Arsenal even comparable in strength to Man City. Because the team that managed to beat Man City last season was Arsenal. And Arsenal even beat Man City in several matches last season. But unfortunately Man City is more consistent. Meanwhile, Arsenal were not consistent enough when they were busy with the UCL. Which made Arsenal lose several points.

Next season, I think it is time for Arsenal to win the Premier League title. but the problem is that Man City is the most difficult obstacle to overcome in the Premier League.

I think from the other side, Arsenal is a great team but Manchester City has a greater team so they are more worthy of winning the title. Maybe what you say is true, Arsenal needs a main striker or indeed they must continue to be under Manchester City and wait until all City players retire For next season, I still believe Arsenal can compete at the top of the standings, especially if they can bring in new players to strengthen the attack line.

What makes us wonder is, will Manchester City be the only competitor for Arsenal? then what about Chelsea? We know that Chelsea is also a team that has a target of winning the title with an unlimited budget and now they just need the right coach to do it. I prefer if 3-4 teams compete at the top of the standings not only dominated by 2 clubs such as Arsenal and Manchester City.

Finally the Euros have come to an end and in no time the EPL will begin and I hope Arsenal are not going to come up with another excuses of having injury prone players or players that have lost form, this is the moment I expect Arteta to start molding the team to a better standard to compete for the title not by relying on a particular player to always deliver. I hope Arteta watched every part of the tournament, especially all the England games. England lost to Spain and I have to pick out the chosen player, Saka. He hasn't been impressive in that tournament and I believe Arteta is seeing how weak he (Saka) has been with the ball, he can't even take on players like he always do in the EPL.
I think an option B is needed in the Arsenal squad for Saka's position, I have a feeling that Saka might not be as active fornl the Gunners next season unless I'm seeing a different player with the 3 Lions but a better one at Arsenal, if not I think Arteta should get another winger for the Gunners if they want to be consistent till the end of the season, to me I'd say Saka was awful throughout the tournament and it will affect the Gunners next season.

Arsenal weakness seems to lie in the rotation options that Arteta has, besides that, Arsenal also doesn't have a striker as sharp as Halaand. Manchester City has everything it needs to win trophies, Arteta certainly understands the differences better because he once worked for Pep Guardiola at the Etihad. It's true, Arsenal has gotten better every season, and last season they almost overthrew Manchester City as defending champions. Meanwhile, Arteta must be really careful in recruiting players, and must also be able to retain his key players so that they don't leave in this transfer window. Because all of this could affect Arsenal chances of competing at the top of the standings, and It would be a shame if Arsenal failed again next season.

Premier League competition is a very different competition. If a team is promoted to the Premier League, that team gets more popularity than other teams, so I think the Premier League and Champions League are the tough and competitive leagues that every team dreams of participating in, but also, I think Liverpool ended their season in the top 3 last season, which is quite a good result for them.

I won’t call that a bad result, and I can’t say they did not end the season well. However, definitely changing the coach will give them a different vibe that they are not used to this coming season, and this will delay their chances of getting to the top of the table. It will also give Arsenal a better chance of success in the Premier League next season.

None of us can tell what the future of Arne Slot would look like as Liverpool coach. He can make Liverpool come top of the PL table or not at the end of next season. However, whatever way his future would be in Liverpool, I believe Liverpool management would try to give him some time to fix Liverpool into the formidable team she is known for, to compete for the PL title.

For the PL title next season, Liverpool are among the teams that football fans are looking up to qualify for the top standing, if not the title. All the same, let's see how things would play out with their new signings in the transfer windows. For sure, they will have some good quality players signed into the team because Arne Slot can't deal it all with Liverpool's old set of players without asking for new signings into the team

Last season Manchester City did nothing honestly. Mikel Arteta didn't play his cards well otherwise, that game Arsenal lost against Aston Villa shouldn't have ended that way truly. Mikel Arteta placed so much importance on the game to be played against Bayern Munich when they should have reserved the players for the game against Aston Villa. I wasn't happy because they had Injury problems in that game and they could stil go on to win against Arsenal.


God knows the Premier League Competition is too boring with how Manchester City has dominated for too long now, I think it's times some else's take a good shot at it.
I would love to see them winning the Premier League Competition next season,it's long overdue already. They have fought for this Competition for the past two seasons. I don't know what will happen to Manchester City but if they aren't stable, then the tide would change.

For competition in the last 2 seasons they are very consistent, only when talking about performance sometimes they play erratically where sometimes they play well but in one moment they fall in the next few matches.

This has always been a problem that has happened to Arsenal in the last few seasons that have made their chances of being released. This season they are one of the most expected candidates to disturb Manchester City in the championship because after all seeing several other clubs such as Liverpool or other clubs such as Manchester United or Chelsea it seems quite difficult so that they are the only hope. But if in the end their performance remains the same where the momentum is always released then it will also be a difficult condition for Arsenal in competition because no matter how good their performance in the end they are always a club whose position is under Manchester City.
