5 Reasons Why Arsenal Will Win The 2017/18 Premier League Title: Number 2 Would Make You Believe

Arsenal will be hurting after finishing fifth, but have a few advantages which could help them end their long title wait.
Every year, Arsenal fans and a few neutral Premier League fans believe it is Arsenal’s year. However, since 2004, the club haven’t built a team that has challenged right until the end of the season, meaning they have had no title glory for 13 years.

To add to that, the club missed out on Champions League football by finishing in fifth place this past season and may struggle to hold on to some key players. But, it is still impossible to rule Arsenal out, and based on the past two Premier League winners, it seems to be a positive thing if the club has no Champions League football.

Here, we suggest 5 reasons that might help Arsenal win the Premier League in 2018:

#5 They finally have a natural goalscorer 


Lacazette scored 37 goals in 45 games for Lyon last season, and Arsene Wenger will be eager to see him bring that prolific form to England as soon as possible.

2. The new formation

This is the first time in years that Arsenal start the season with a new formation. For the past decade, the Gunners have effectively played a variant on 4-3-3, but this year they will line up with three at the back. 

Wenger adopted the formation towards the end of last season, with spectacular results: Arsenal won nine out of their last 10 fixtures, including victories over Manchester City, Manchester United and Chelsea. Add in the Community Shield, and it’s clear this is a system that can deliver Arsenal results.

In pre-season, Wenger intimated that he would alternate between a back three and a back four. However, the classic back four has only been used sparingly. It seems manager and team are committed to the new approach. 

Of course, it’s unrealistic to expect Arsenal’s new formation to continue delivering results at this remarkable rate. The element of surprise has now been lost—opposition teams will arrive expecting Wenger to field three centre-halves.

However, Arsenal fans don’t know how a season will play out with this new-look team. There is curiosity—and plenty of optimism. For years Arsenal have been searching for a solution to make them more secure defensively. In the back three, Wenger may finally have found it.
