So, who takes home the Preo’s going-to-the-league title at the end of this campaign? That’s a question Alan Shearer has been trying to answer, and regrettably, when it came to choosing his favourite, he didn’t pick Arsenal.

He opted to go with Manchester City as the favourite for the league title. He thinks the defending Champs have a superb roster, with practically everyone fit, and are on a terrific run, which is why he confidently believes they will successfully defend the league title.”I said before the season that the same colours would be on there, and I still think the same, Man City,” Shearer told BBC Radio 5 Live.

“I just think that with the squad that they have at the moment, everyone is fit in that squad, and it is looking really good for them. They are on a good run.”

However, the former Newcastle legend added that Arsenal and Liverpool should not be disregarded in the title fight. He rejected Tottenham and Aston Villa’s chances for the league.Shearer continued, “But isn’t it really exciting that we’ve got three teams [City, Liverpool, and Arsenal] going for it now until the end of the season?

“All three of them are looking impressive, I think. I know Spurs fans and Aston Villa fans out there will be shouting at me now, but I do think it will be between City, Liverpool, and Arsenal.”

I feel it’s fair to say that Manchester City is the team to beat. But hey, as Gunners, we can still believe that we’re the favourites, right? If we keep up our current form—4 victories in 4 matches after the winter break—we have a legitimate opportunity at capturing the league crown.

I don’t know about you, but I’m pretty bullish about this Arsenal team. We’re scoring a lot these days. The team’s major problem was not scoring frequently, and it is now sorted. So, what’s going to hold Arsenal back if they can come out on top in their own battles?
