Arsenal legend Ray Parlour reckons the Gunners are “a million miles away” from winning the Premier League.

Last year saw Arsenal finish a staggering 28 points behind champions Manchester City and 27 adrift of Liverpool.

Unai Emery’s side have taken six points from their opening two league games but the Gunners legend does not think they are ready to challenge at the top.

He told talkSPORT: “I heard a few shows yesterday saying we can challenge for the league, but they’re a million miles away from Man City and Liverpool at the moment, if I’m honest.

“How many Arsenal players would get into the Liverpool team?

“The most important thing is getting back into the Champions League.”

The Gunners travel to Liverpool this weekend for their first ‘big six’ test of the season. The Reds have a perfect start from their opening two games and will have fond memories of thumping Emery’s side 5-1 at Anfield in 2018/19.
