The premier league challenge is wide open this year, till the instance. Liverpool, and Chelsea seem to be real title contenders with Man City behind them after their shocking draw against Wolves.
However, let's not underestimate Arsenal and Unai Emery! Although the team is struggling to find his form under a new manager Unai Emery, the team has finally found its momentum after beating West Ham, Cardiff, Newcastle respectively. These matches, where two of them were played away from the Emirates, really showed that Arsenal are still in the EPL race. The gunners can still compete with the biggest clubs in England, regardless of the losses against Man City and Chelsea in the first two matches of the season.
On the other hand, Arsenal will play three out of five games at the emirates, against Everton, Leicester, and Watford. The other games will be featured away at Craven Cottage against Fulham, and at Selhurst Park against Palace. Then, we can notice that these matches are winnable, and fifteen points should be almost guaranteed before going to our biggest match of the season, in my opinion, against Liverpool at the Emirates.
To sum up, Arsenal can still make it and lift the Premier league this season, if we continue our momentum till December. Never forget the fact that Arsenal have to sign a world class winger that will improve the team and lead Arsenal forward to the title. Regardless of the Europa League's importance, Arsenal should mainly target the premier league before thinking of a top four finish because the gunners should have the ambition, and the hunger to win the biggest trophy in England.
Finally, will Emery do a Conte and win it this season? Let's hope and see.
