After Manchester City beat Tottenham 2-0 away, Arsenal's dream of winning the Premier League title may be cold again.

Before the final round of the final round, Manchester City accumulated 88 points, Arsenal accumulated 86 points, although the suspense of the championship still remains, but there is one thing to say, with the strength and confidence of Manchester City, the final round of Ittihad defeated West Ham United, which has no desire, there is basically no suspense.

Of course, Arsenal is by no means hopeless, after all, Manchester City also have the possibility of dropping the chain in the final round, even if it is a draw, Arsenal can win the long-awaited championship trophy with a goal difference of three goals. However, it is impossible to expect four of the seven Premier League trophies to be won by Manchester City in the final round.

Therefore, Arsenal's championship dream can only wait for next year. It's devastating to fall short again, but it's always important to be clear: how did Arsenal miss out on the title this time?

If it is inevitable that the strength will collapse after leading the majority of the season last season, then this season's failure is really a bit of a surprise.

Arsenal's record last season was 38 games, 26 wins, 6 draws, 6 losses, and 84 points, which does not look bad, but the hard flaw lies in the poor record of the BIG6 internal round-robin battle, 5 wins, 1 draw and 4 losses, and the most fatal thing is that it collapsed directly after being killed by Manchester City home and away at the critical stage of the championship. In the final standings, Arsenal is only 5 points less than Manchester City.

In last summer's window, Arsenal acquired England's No. 1 defender Declan Rice from West Ham United for a club-record transfer record, and then Mikel Arteta's much-loved Kai Havertz from Chelsea.

With the addition of strong reinforcements, Arsenal has been reborn in this season's strong dialogue. In the BIG6 internal round-robin battle, Arsenal's record is 6 wins and 4 draws to remain unbeaten, and 22 points - the first double defeat to Manchester United in 26 years, against Manchester City, Liverpool, Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea are all 1 win and 1 draw.

In comparison, Manchester City's record in the BIG6 internal round-robin this season is 3 wins, 6 draws and 1 loss with 15 points, 7 points less than Arsenal. However, before the final round of the final round, Manchester City had a two-point lead over Arsenal, which means that Manchester City had nine points more than Arsenal against opponents outside the BIG6.

Looking at Arsenal's current record, 27 wins, 5 draws and 5 losses have surpassed last season's final performance. Clearly, the key to Arsenal's title hopes is now almost shattered, in the five games they have lost.

Arsenal have lost these five games against Newcastle, Villa, Fulham, West Ham United and Villa. Losing to Newcastle was the first defeat of the season, and there was a huge controversy, but how could there be no controversy in football, Newcastle is not weak, and it is okay to be calm.

It was the two neighbours in London who really sounded the alarm for Arsenal's title race. Arsenal became the Christmas champions after drawing with Liverpool in the Christmas game, which is supposed to be a good time to expand the lead before the Premier League winter break, but in a good situation, they lost to West Ham United at home, lost the halfway title, and then lost to Fulham away, and dropped to fourth in the rankings.

Returning from the winter break, Arsenal returned to a dominant performance and seized the opportunity of Manchester United's draw with Liverpool to return to the top of the table. However, this time they didn't even sit on the butt, and Arsenal once again lost at home to Villa without warning, and were beaten home and away by their opponents, narrowing the gap to one point with one game less to Manchester City.

By the way, Arsenal has drawn 5 games, except for 4 draws with BIG6, and the remaining 1 is a draw at home to Fulham. It can be seen that it is these London neighbors and the most familiar strangers who really shattered Arsenal's championship dream - because it was the former coach Unai Emery who led Villa to beat Arsenal twice this season.

If there is no miracle in the final round, Arsenal's title dream will have to wait until next season. The road is long and obstructive, and I can only move forward firmly.
