Scholes Doubts Arsenal’s Title Potential…

Paul Scholes gave Gary Neville’s prediction the boot, chuckling at the notion that Arsenal can win the Premier League this year. After a 1-0 loss to Liverpool, thanks to Dominik Szoboszlai’s magic toes, Scholes thinks Arsenal is as ready for a title as a penguin is for a desert marathon. He does appreciate Arteta’s progress, but wonders if the Gunners can reach that next level of league domination.

Scholes compared Arsenal’s title hopes to a kangaroo on ice skates—wobbly at best—especially after their struggle at Anfield. Despite dominating possession, the Gunners only had one slippery shot on target. Even bringing on Eze was like expecting a raccoon to solve a Rubik’s Cube—full of hope, but ultimately unsuccessful. Scholes is convinced they’re a few signings away from truly competing with Liverpool and City.
