The result marked Arsenal’s fourth consecutive league game without a win, raising doubts among fans and pundits about their title aspirations this season.
The Gunners, who were once close contenders, now trail league leaders Liverpool by a sizable nine points. The gap has sparked debate over whether Mikel Arteta’s side still has the quality to keep pace with the league’s top teams.
While Arsenal have shown flashes of their potential this season, inconsistency has seen them falter in crucial games.
Many fans voiced frustration on social media following the game, with some questioning the team’s ability to mount a serious challenge for the title. Pundits also weighed in, pointing out Arsenal’s need for stability and focus if they hope to regain their early-season form and challenge for the top spot.
