The Premier League is back, and Arsenal played their first game against Coventry City. Arsenal has been below par during pre-season, but their display against Manchester City in the Community Shield showed that they have the squad and Arteta has the tactics to retain the Premier League title.
Arsenal dominated the first half of the league last season, and this helped them secure the title at the end of the season when it looked at times that it was going back to the Etihad. Arsenal stepped up their game and revved into gear to scrap games to win the title.
In their first game this season, Arsenal mauled Coventry City, a newly promoted side that won the Championship last year. Arsenal’s display showed that they are true professionals and dominate the game from minute one to minute 90.
This display is scary, and it is going to take a good team to stop this Arsenal side. Goals from Havertz, Saka and Odegaard gave the Gunners a bright start to the Premier League season. The Gunners dominated the game and had more possession than their opponent, with more than 20 shots on target.
Arsenal’s opening night was a success, and they have laid down a statement win to show the rest of the league that they are back to create a legacy.
