Mikel: Arsenal is expected to win the Premier League and Champions League, but must find a way to score goals in sports games

Mikel, who won the Premier League twice while playing for Chelsea, believes that Arsenal has the ability to win both the Premier League and the Champions League this season, and said that Arteta's lineup is currently the strongest in Europe.

Currently, Arsenal leads the second place in the Premier League standings by 4 points and is already 7 points ahead of the defending champion Liverpool. Arteta's side also performed well in the Champions League, beating Athletic Bilbao, Olympiacos and Atletico Madrid without conceding a goal.

Mikel stated in the "Obi Podcast" that Arsenal is a strong contender for the Premier League title this season, and called the depth of the lineup in Arteta's hands "frightening."

"I think Arsenal have a great chance of winning the Premier League this season. If Arsenal and Arteta can't win the Premier League... ...Their lineup depth is terrible."

"They have the best lineup not only in the Premier League, but also in the entire English and world football."

"Not only the starting 11, but also the best lineup in the world. The players on the Arsenal bench can also change the outcome of the game. Players such as Martinelli can help the team win the game after coming off the bench. "Sometimes it is not the starting 11 that determines the outcome of the game, but the players on the bench. We have seen it. Martinelli, Eze and others won the game for Arsenal after coming off the bench. This is really scary. Arteta knows this. This is Arsenal's championship advantage."

"Manchester City is not in the best condition, Liverpool is also struggling, and we (Chelsea) do not have enough experience. To win the Premier League. So, I think Arsenal can win the Premier League and maybe even the Champions League.”

Although Arsenal have been criticized for their single goal scoring method, Mikel believes Arteta has enough offensive options to not only rely on set pieces.

"No matter how you score, how you win, how you win the championship, as long as you win, it's fine, but if you have so many offensively creative players, you have to find a way for them to create scoring opportunities."

"Since last season, Arsenal have relied too much on set pieces, throw-ins and corner kicks to score goals. But this It doesn't mean I'm criticizing them, they have the right to win in any way. But if you've spent over a billion pounds in the last six or seven years, you have to find a way to score goals from open play. "To be fair, Arsenal have found a way to win, they are doing what they have to do."
