Following a disappointing defeat to West Ham United last weekend, Arsenal now currently sit 11 points behind league leaders Liverpool with a game in hand. It’s looking increasingly likely the Gunners will go another year without lifting the Premier League trophy.
Arsenal last won the competition in the 2003/04 season when they went invincible. The last few seasons is the closest the club has come in the last 21 years, but still the trophy eludes Mikel Arteta.
The Spaniard has built a magnificent side, but which always seems to be missing one player to get them over the line. The Gunners have had the best defence in the country over the past two years, but the lack of a 30-goal striker means it hasn’t been enough to win the Premier League title.
Ian Wright is concerned that Arsenal could lose William Saliba in the summer: “When you’re talking about renewals with certain players… Saka, Gabriel, Saliba… the way they’re moving now, I bet those renewals are all going to be slow. We’re going to have a situation maybe like Liverpool with Trent, Salah and Virgil.
