In a recent analysis, Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher has made a bold declaration: Arsenal will not win the Premier League this season. According to Carragher, the team lacks a goalkeeper and striker capable of leading them to victory.
Carragher’s remarks were made in the aftermath of Arsenal’s first league defeat this season, a contentious 1-0 loss to Newcastle United at St James’ Park.
“Do Arsenal possess a center-forward and a goalkeeper who can secure a league win? I highly doubt it,” said Carragher during his appearance on Sky Sports. “When considering the vital positions that determine championship-winning teams, it’s evident that Arsenal falls short in both penalty areas.”
The defeat against Newcastle United puts pressure on Mikel Arteta’s side to regroup as they prepare to face Sevilla in the Champions League midweek and Burnley in the league on Saturday.
