Ally McCoist has praised Arsenal's performance in both the Premier League and Champions League but asserts they are one significant signing away from elite status. He highlights the impact of Gabriel's injuries on the squad, suggesting that his presence could have greatly improved the team's defense. While noting the commendable efforts of players like Jakub Kiwior and William Saliba, McCoist argues that Arsenal still struggles to compensate for key injuries as efficiently as top teams do. Overall, he indicates their potential could be unlocked with additional strategic acquisitions.
A proper striker is what every Arsenal fan would give as the standard answer. But the biggest thing is the defence. They really missed Gabriel.
There's a huge drop-off in quality behind the likes of Gabriel. The top teams cope better with those losses than Arsenal do.
Despite missing Gabriel, the Gunnersâ defensive unit, led by Saliba and Timber, have impressed. Theyâve given a good account of themselves this season.
Arsenal are short of elite status but just one key signing away from transforming into an unstoppable juggernaut.
