Arsenal edge closer to title but must navigate familiar traps

Indeed, Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal have tasted the summit before, yet they failed to finish the job in previous campaigns.

Meanwhile, all signs point to this finally being Arsenal’s season.

However, they have spent almost 800 days atop the table since their last title in 2004.

After spending over £250m in the summer, Arteta built a formidable squad.

Moreover, the squad has coped with injuries to Kai Havertz and Ødegaard.

That challenge derailed them in three successive runner-up finishes.

Nevertheless, complacency remains a danger.

Yet, Arsenal know the title rarely lands without a sustained push.

Fans will watch nervously as the campaign unfolds.

TLDR

  • Arsenal have spent over £250m and sit at the top of the table.
  • The squad has shown resilience despite injuries to Havertz and Ødegaard.
  • The title run requires sustained momentum and smart decisions from Arteta.
