Arsenal will win it unless we can rediscover our form and go on a winning run, which includes beating them twice. Their squad isn't great, but it doesn't have to be. They can throw the Europa League as they'll be in the CL at least next season, and it's not worth sacrificing a title challenge over. Odegaard, Saliba and Saka are key to their chances. One injury there and they could struggle, but we thought they might without Jesus and they've been fine.
It's theirs for the taking, even with a drop off, because we're unlikely to win 10+ in a row or beat them twice unless there's a dramatic change and the players rediscover their fight.
Having said that, if I was Pep I'd be showing them the Villa game and showing them the guard of honour for Liverpool and saying which one would you rather feel at the end of the season, because it's still very much up to you. Arteta is helping make Arsenal very unlikeable with his flapping about on the touchline and our games with them will have an extra edge in the master v apprentice bill which the media will jump all over. I think Arsenal's game plan is pretty obvious and pretty rigid. I'm sure Pep will have an answer for it.
