Ian Wright has made a bold prediction for next season's Premier League campaign which will be a concern to Arsenal and Mikel Arteta. The Gunners, to the surprise of most, have pushed Manchester City all the way in the title race this season, but their recent 3-0 loss to Brighton looks to have ended any hope of Arsenal lifting silverware at the end of May.
A four-game winless run over April and May has proved costly for Arsenal with City then able to catch up to their points tally before leapfrogging them in the table following a 4-1 win at Etihad Stadium. Back-to-back victories brought Arsenal back into the conversation but the Sunday defeat against Brighton means City need just one win from their last three Premier League games to retain the title.
While it remains possible the Gunners win the league this season, with Champions League football secure, attention must turn to the upcoming transfer window and the 2023/24 campaign. Challenging seasons for Chelsea, Manchester United and Liverpool have resulted in it being a straight shoot-out between City and Arsenal but Wright does not expect that to happen again next season.
