3 reasons Arsenal can go all the way and win the Champions League

Defensively more solid

One of the biggest weaknesses Arsenal have had in Europe in recent seasons is leaking goals against the best sides.

They have been knocked out in the last 16 for the past six seasons, and have conceded 22 goals in those last 16 ties. This may not seem like too many but that’s almost two goals a game and, when you’re playing the best sides, you’ve got to be better at the back.

However, Arsenal have looked much defensively so far this season. They have only conceded ten goals in ten Premier League games, and have conceded just one in Europe so far.

Petr Cech has been in great form, and the partnership between Laurent Koscielny and Skhodran Mustafi is developing into an excellent one.

If they can stay fit and continue their great work, it could be a platform for Wenger’s side to go on and finally win the Champions League.
