Arsenal have made an impressive start to the new season, sitting top of the Premier League after eight games played so far, registering seven wins. Victory in the North London Derby over Tottenham at the weekend has only continued their forward momentum - inflicting a first defeat of the league season to their rivals too.
Their start has led to many suggesting they could be title contenders this campaign, but manager Mikel Arteta has been coy in any such discussion so far. If there were to challenge, they would have to face off against champions Manchester City, who have found some goal scoring form as of late.
Despite that, former defender William Gallas believes they can challenge, telling Genting Casino: "What Arsenal need to do is keep believing in their quality and, if they approach their matches with this desire and level of intensity, then they can compete with any club in the league. Arsenal need to keep doing this.
