Arsenal legend Freddie Ljungberg doubts whether Mikel Arteta's side can win the title this season... but does think they will be Man City's main challengers again

Freddie Ljungberg has doubts about whether his former club Arsenal can end their title drought this season under Mikel Arteta.

The Gunners are searching for their first league triumph since 2004 and moved top of the table on Saturday after picking up a late 1-0 win at Brentford.

But Ljungberg is concerned by the team's attack, with Bukayo Saka, Martin Odegaard, Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Jesus all down on their goals-per-minutes ratio when compared with last season, and believes that could be an issue as the season progresses.
