Arsenal’s 2024/25 Premier League title ambitions were dealt a big blow following their narrow 1-0 loss to Newcastle United.’
The Gunners are looking to end their 20-year Premier League drought and have come close in the last two campaigns. Club legend Thierry Henry has shared his thoughts on why his former team’s title challenge is crumbling. The Gunners last won the Premier League in 2004 and struggled to reach that level for years until Mikel Arteta arrived in the last few seasons.

The three-time Premier League champions have won five of their ten matches so far and are seven points behind leaders Liverpool.

Arsenal lost five games in total last season in the league, and they’ve lost two after 10 rounds this campaign. Furthermore, they’ve won once away from home in their last six matches in all competitions. Can they bounce back?
