Emphasizing that a points total between 96 and 100 will likely be necessary to surpass Manchester City and Liverpool. This ambitious target stems from the consistently high standards set by Pep Guardiola’s City, who have won the league with such points tallies in the past, and Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool, who once finished second with 97 points.

Arteta’s belief in the need for such a high points total is not unfounded. Under his guidance, Arsenal have made significant improvements, particularly in their defensive stability. Key summer signings such as Declan Rice and Kai Havertz have bolstered the squad. Rice, known for his defensive prowess, has added significant solidity to Arsenal’s midfield, while Havertz has provided versatility and physicality. These additions have been crucial in reducing the number of shots on target against them, a vital factor in maintaining a strong defensive record.

Furthermore, Arteta’s tenure has seen the development of a robust defensive partnership between Gabriel Magalhaes and William Saliba. Gabriel has evolved into a more disciplined and effective defender, reducing unnecessary fouls and becoming a leader on the pitch. Saliba, on the other hand, is noted for his composure and ability to play out from the back, providing a reliable defensive anchor.

Offensively, Arsenal have also shown significant prowess. They ended the 2023/24 season with a strong run of form, winning 16 of their last 18 matches and maintaining a close race with Manchester City until the final day. This consistency is a testament to Arteta’s tactical acumen and the squad’s resilience.

Arteta’s experience working under Guardiola at Manchester City has given him valuable insights into what it takes to achieve such high standards. He acknowledges the need for continuous improvement and the importance of sustaining a high level of performance over multiple seasons to eventually secure the title. This season’s performance, where Arsenal finished with 89 points but still fell short, underscores the challenge ahead but also highlights the progress made under Arteta’s leadership.

Looking forward, Arteta is optimistic about Arsenal’s trajectory. He believes that with a few more strategic signings and continued development, Arsenal can bridge the gap and finally win their first Premier League title since 2004. The team’s strong defensive foundation, coupled with their attacking capabilities, puts them in a good position to challenge for the title in the upcoming seasons.

While the target of 96-100 points is daunting, it reflects the high level of competition in the Premier League. Arteta’s confidence in his team’s potential and the significant improvements made in recent seasons suggest that Arsenal are on the right path to becoming title contenders. The challenge now lies in maintaining this momentum and making the necessary enhancements to ensure they can outpace their formidable rivals, Manchester City and Liverpool, in the race for the Premier League crown.
