This season is an important one for Arsenal and nobody around the club is scared to say it. The Gunners have spent more than £190m in initial fees as they look to refresh the squad and bring in new players, including the arrival of Viktor Gyokeres from Sporting. Mikel Arteta has done an excellent job in transforming Arsenal into repeat contenders in the league and brought consistent Champions League football but now it is time for them to take the next step.
This season is an important one for Arsenal and nobody around the club is scared to say it. The players, manager and even the kit launch have all referenced the 'reach new heights' tag - or a version of it - as they look to win a trophy for the first time since 2020.

Mikel Arteta has done an excellent job in transforming Arsenal into repeat contenders in the league and brought consistent Champions League football but now it is time for them to take the next step. This will be a pressured season after coming so close for so many seasons now.
Arteta looks to have tweaked the way Arsenal are playing, too. During pre-season the Gunners have played the ball through the lines quicker, looking to get the ball forward into areas where they can score goals.
All of that has been done to complement Gyokeres' style of play and, although it may take time, if it clicks Arsenal are going to come very close again.
