5th place: Arsenal
Arsenal enjoyed a brilliant start to the campaign last season under Unai Emery. However, their form dropped drastically due to injuries to key players and they failed to qualify for the Champions League for the third season running. Despite their reported financial restrictions, the Gunners have managed to bring in quality players and filled some holes in their squad. Arsenal have added the likes of Nicolas Pepe, Gabriel Martinelli, William Saliba, Dani Ceballos, Kieran Tiernay and David Luiz to their squad this summer. However, they are still lacking options in both midfield and defence.
Despite bringing in Kieran Tiernay and David Luiz, their defence does not look good enough to compete with their rivals next season. Scoring goals was never an issue for Unai Emery's side last season, however, stopping them from going in their own net was. Despite strengthening their squad in various positions on the pitch, not fixing their backline may cost Arsenal a Champions League spot and we predict that they will end up finishing 5th this season.
