    Arsenal: Could Gunners win title without a regular goalscorer?

    There could be comparisons drawn with the Chelsea side that won the title in 2005 to the current Arsenal team.

    Jose Mourinho had a great defence that season with John Terry, Riccardo Carvalho, WIlliam Gallas and Paulo Ferreira playing the majority of games in a backline that only conceded 15 goals throughout the Premier League campaign.

    The Gunners have conceded 14 goals in 21 league games – fewer than any other side – and that’s having to contend with injuries to key defenders Gabriel Magalhaes, William Saliba and Riccardo Calafiori this season.

    Although his performances have been disappointing, Arsenal have still only lost once when Gyokeres has started a match.

    Manchester City, when they won the title in the 2020-21, also had their goals spread with Gundogan scoring 13 goals, Sterling 10 and Phil Foden, Gabriel Jesus and Riyad Mahrez all scoring nine times that season.

    With 17 league games left, Trossard and Gyokeres would have to score at a ratio of around a goal every two games to reach 13 goals, which seems unlikely given their current scoring rate.

    The Gunners have consistently looked like the best all-round team this season with opposition managers saying that they do not have a weakness.

    Arsenal are also the league’s best side from set-pieces and have scored 17 goals from corners in all competitions this season – the most by any Premier League team, which gives them an added threat and takes away the dependency on having one top level goal scorer.

    After three successive second-placed finishes and a six-point gap at the top of the league, even without a goal scorer, the Gunners are ready to take the next step and become winners.
