Former Arsenal player Jeremie Aliadiere has highlighted three key players he believes are crucial to the Gunners' success in the upcoming 2026-27 season. Speaking ahead of the Premier League title defense, Aliadiere, a former striker for Arsenal, expressed confidence in Mikel Arteta's team's ability to reclaim the title. However, he emphasized that the team's performance could be significantly impacted by the fitness of three important players: William Saliba, Bukayo Saka, and Declan Rice.
Aliadiere stated, "I believe so, yes. Arsenal already possesses an excellent squad, but their current investment represents a significant move and a declaration of their intent to advance and defend their title. Therefore, in my opinion, Arsenal has the most formidable squad to win the title again." The potential setbacks include Saka and Rice recovering from injuries and maintaining peak performance levels, as well as the possibility of Saliba being sidelined, which would remove a dependable partnership for Gabriel.
Despite these concerns, Aliadiere remains optimistic, believing the larger and more robust squad Arsenal has assembled can overcome any challenges.
