Former Arsenal striker, Alan Smith, has singled out Manchester City as the only team that can stop the Gunners from winning the Premier League title this season.
Arsenal won the English top-flight league last season ahead of City, who finished in second position.
However, Smith feels the Cityzens is the only team that can challenge Mikel Arteta’s side because they have a new manager, Enzo Maresca.
“I think Man City are the key challenger [to Arsenal],” Smith told Metro.
“Obviously, they have a new manager, so that puts a little question mark in there about how Maresca can settle with his players, but I still see them being the only challenger.
“There’s a whole host of others just below that, but I’d say it’s [between Arsenal and] City at the moment.”
