Arsenal Feel Like a Different Team This Season, But Why? – Opinion

Writing for Just Arsenal News, columnist Michelle argues that Arsenal feel like a different side compared to their Premier League title-winning campaign. The author believes opponents have adapted to Arsenal's playing style by closing down space, forcing Mikel Arteta's team into a slower, more cautious approach that has limited their attacking fluidity.

While noting recent positive results, including a 3-0 Champions League win over Lille and a 2-0 Premier League victory against Everton, the writer highlights that Arteta appears focused on preventing counterattacks. The article emphasizes that despite goalkeeper David Raya recording seven clean sheets in 11 matches, Arsenal need to regain their attacking momentum.
