’Yes, 'Arsenal' is a real contender, I say this without any hesitation. You may argue that I say this every year, but I truly believe that this season they are equipped to handle any challenges.

When they lost Kai Havertz and Bukayo Saka last season, it was too much, but this year they have Madueke... This year Eze can replace Ødegaard, and you also have Martinelli, Trossard.

In defense, they have Mosquera, they have adequate replacements on the flanks and at the back. Lewis-Skelly is not making it into the starting lineup at the moment, even though he is an England national team player. They have the best-equipped squad in the league.

Compare them to 'Liverpool,' who finished the match against 'Chelsea' with Szoboszlai in the right-back position and Gravenberch as a central defender. 'Arsenal' would not find themselves in such a situation,' Wenger told beIN Sports.
