Arsenal have been told they will need to spend over £250million on new recruits if they are to overtake Manchester City and become England's best team. The Gunners are due to finish slightly short this season despite leading the way for some time.
Despite topping the table for the majority of the season, Mikel Arteta's men have fallen off in recent weeks and are one game away from conceding the league title. Last weekend's 3-0 home defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion was the final nail in the north Londoners' coffin, though it has been a successful season as a whole.
Last season, Arsenal finished fifth on the final day, missing out on Champions League football. Fast forward 12 months and the Gunners have secured their place in Europe's prestigious competition, ticking-off another objective under Arteta.
