3 reasons why Arsenal will not win the Premier League 2018-19

3. Squad Depth

Though the squad depth has improved with the new signings, Arsenal are still short on quality players on the bench who can be counted upon to step up in times of need. Arsenal just do not have the squad strength to endure a long grueling season. Arsenal have two left backs in Nacho Monreal and Sead Kolasinac. Sead Kolasinac is not defensively sound and Monreal is injury prone.

Center back is another area of concern with Sokratis, Laurent Koscielny, Shkodran Mustafi, Rob Holding, Calum Chambers and Mavropanos in the squad. Sokratis has been average for the past two seasons, Koscielny will miss the first few months of the season and is past his best. Mustafi has been highly inconsistent and was criticized by Arsenal fans last year for his lethargic play and the latter 3 have huge potential but need more experience.

Arsenal’s attack will need one more striker and backup defensive midfielder to provide cover for Torreira. They will need to clear out deadwood like Carl Jenkinson, Danny Welbeck, Joel Campbell and Alex Iwobi and sign adequate replacements.

Arsenal, under Unai Emery still remain a work in progress and there's a lot of work left to be done for them to pose a stiff challenge for the Premier League title.
