Yes, that's right, I agree with your opinion because as long as Manchester City still has players and coaches who are currently at the club, Arsenal will have a very difficult time competing with Manchester City.
From Manchester City's experience, this will be one of the reasons why Pep Guardiola's troops have always been able to win the PL title in recent seasons, while Arsenal's lack of experience will be one of the obstacles that makes this club always unable to compete with Manchester City.
Not only that, Arsenal also does not have the mental readiness to face every obstacle that must be resolved with good results, whereas to win the title, Arsenal must be able to overcome all obstacles like Manchester City did.
I'm also not sure whether in the coming season Arsenal will succeed in getting the title, but what is certain is that as long as Arsenal cannot learn from their mistakes, the results will remain the same.
Likewise with City, they will not always have it smoothly and will definitely be able to win the League trophy every season. It is true that we know very well when Pep Guardiola handles his team's squad and goes through competitions every season, especially in the last four seasons where they have always won the Premier League. However, each season presents a different challenge for Pep Guardiola and the same for City. At the same time, Arsenal have been trying for two seasons to compete fiercely in the race to win the Premier League. 23-24 season, where Arsenal were only narrowly separated by points. they did their job extraordinary, the enthusiasm of the young people really deserves to be appreciated. Even though in the end last season it was difficult to overtake City at the top of the standings, for the last two seasons Arsenal have been the only team that has troubled City's progress in continuing to dominate the EPL.
Well, so far Arsenal have shown that they are able to compete, even though many say that Arsenal lacks in terms of mentality and preparation. I see that so far Arteta is still committed to his project to bring Arsenal to its best level, that's why he is still trusted to handle the Gunners. This season, Arteta will make efforts with his squad, as well as bringing in several new arrivals to add depth to the team to face the new competition. Well, I hope the 2024-25 competition, will provide interesting competition. Not only Arsenal, but several other teams also add to the excitement of the Premier League.
Arsenal can do it, we will find out as the competition rolls out.
