The good thing is that Mikel Arteta has already hinted they are working on being at their absolute best, as he revealed, “[On what he expects about next season] Harder, for sure, because the level is going to go up and the teams are getting better, and the league is getting stronger.
“So, it’s only going to get harder. We have to be better and play better, and do things better than we did last year, and that’s what we’re working on at the moment.”
With the acquisition of Kai Havertz, Jurrien Timber and Declan Rice, Arsenal are stronger than last season.
