I'd take it in so far as to guarantee us a decent CL attacking signing in the summer, this squad is pretty much 1 or 2 injury from collapse
Simple answer is no.
The ambitions of the club should be revised imo. 4th should have been something we were aspiring for last season and we were 2 points behind Sp**s who got (71 points), we should be looking more towards the 85 points mark this season with this current bunch that’s if we don’t bring in any other signings in January and then building from there next season. I doubt that’ll be enough to win the PL especially with how Haaland is playing.
No Steady Eddies around here. We’ve got to put all our chips on red and hope for the best.
Question for me is.
Do you sack Arteta based on these revised standards?

We’ve had two ‘tests’ won one and lost one. We seem to be collectively ignoring the United loss as a bad day at the office which I think is a bit lazy.
It is when assessing if we’re ‘clear’ of the rest. We look like we are but when it comes down to it out record is 1W1L against the big 6.Is it? I don't think there is any real shame in losing against specific opposition away from home. This team isn't unbeatable so if Arsenal are going to lose anywhere it might as well be at Old Trafford.
We were the better team against United and unfortunate to lose. I was actually more confident of us getting top 4 after our performance in that game than before, and I think both Neville and Carragher said the same.We’ve had two ‘tests’ won one and lost one. We seem to be collectively ignoring the United loss as a bad day at the office which I think is a bit lazy. We need to play the others before we can be sure we’re the ‘best of the rest’.
Fair enough. For me I read the opening post and it literally comes down to is Arsenal better (or can be better) than City? and it's a no.It is when assessing if we’re ‘clear’ of the rest. We look like we are but when it comes down to it out record is 1W1L against the big 6.

Exactly so I’d just take 4th now.The other thing you have to consider as well is how thin the squad is compared to the rest. We look to have a better starting 11 than Chelsea and Sp**s, but I think we’re an injury/suspension to Ramsdale/Saliba/#5/one of the forwards away from a big drop in quality.
