Former France striker Thierry Henry has picked the two teams he expects to challenge Arsenal for the Premier League title this season.
Mikel Artetaās men are the current champions after ending a 22-year wait for the trophy last season.
The Gunners are widely regarded as the favourites to win it again in the 2026/2027 campaign.
But Henry has said Manchester City and Chelsea could make it difficult for Arsenal.
He also warned his former club about the mistakes Liverpool made while trying to defend their league title.
Henry said: āEveryone was like, āLiverpool know how to win. I donāt see how theyāre not going to win the title again.ā
āTwo weeks after, it went south for so many reasons. When they didnāt buy anyone, they won the league with Arne Slot. They went on to buy people, they imploded.
āThatās why when people ask me, āWho is a challenger, who is a contender? Do you think if that player goes there, they can challenge?ā I say, āHey, we have to wait. Let Maresca work, let Xabi work.āā
