Piers Morgan claims Cristiano Ronaldo would 'score 25+ goals for Arsenal' this season as he points out Mikel Arteta's 'one major blindspot' after agonising 2-0 defeat to Aston Villa

Piers Morgan has identified Cristiano Ronaldo as a player who would 'score 25+ goals' for Arsenal after their disappointing 2-0 loss to Aston Villa.

The Gunners have been one of the leading contenders to win their first Premier League title since 2003-04 after a strong campaign under boss Mikel Arteta, but their agonising home defeat to the Villans brought a reality check.

Arsenal were frustrated by Unai Emery's men, who shocked the home faithful with two late goals from Leon Bailey and Ollie Watkins to hand the initiative in the title race to Pep Guardiola's Manchester City.
