Michael Owen has stated that he does not think Arsenal have the squad, that can finish this season at the top.
The Gunners are currently on top of the English Premier League, after
taking all maximum points from their last four matches, but the former
Liverpool and Manchester striker believes only Mesut Ozil is the
stand-out performer.
“From the start I had my reservations. They seemed not to be spending
but then came up with one big investment right at the end of the
transfer window,” Owen wrote in his column for the Daily Telegraph.
“When I look at a squad I see a decent collection of players but not a top-four operation.
“From the back: the goalkeeper, Wojciech Szczesny is capable but I
would have the keeper of all the other top teams ahead of Arsenal’s.
“In defence, Arsenal are decent, but again none of their back four would make a composite Premier League XI.
“If I look right the way through the Arsenal team, with a view to
picking an all-star side from the top six clubs, I would struggle to
nominate one Arsenal player. Mesut Ozil is the only one who would have a
chance.”
