Again, as exemplified by Jurgen Klopp's team last season, Arsenal will need to counter attack the Cityzens at every opportunity they get, and be clinical. They cannot afford to be wasteful in front of goal.

With the searing pace of Aubameyang and Lacazette, Arsenal can cause City a lot of problems, especially because the likes of Otamendi at the back don't have a lot of pace. Unai Emery has to ring this into the ears of his attacking players.

Conclusively,. Arsenal needs to defend better individually and collectively. They need to be very strong on the tackle, but sensible and disciplined, not giving needless fouls away - especially in dangerous areas.
