Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher has shared his thoughts on Arsenal’s current squad, suggesting that the Gunners need to strengthen in two key areas if they are to improve their chances of success in the future.

Carragher, who has been a regular pundit on Sky Sports since retiring from professional football, believes Arsenal’s squad is lacking in depth in both the left-wing and center-forward positions.

According to Carragher, Arsenal’s lack of a reliable starter on the left side of attack is a major issue.

Currently, manager Mikel Arteta has Leandro Trossard and Gabriel Martinelli competing for the spot, with neither player consistently cementing their place in the lineup.

Martinelli, known for his pace and direct running, has shown flashes of brilliance but has struggled with injuries and form this season.

On the other hand, Trossard, who joined Arsenal from Brighton & Hove Albion in 2023, has impressed when given the chance but doesn’t offer the same explosive qualities as Martinelli.

Carragher pointed out that while these two players have potential, Arsenal might need to bring in someone more dependable for the left-wing role.

“I’ve always had reservations about Arsenal winning the title, and I’ve said it before,” Carragher explained.

“I’ve always felt they were missing a key player in attack. It’s not necessarily that they need a traditional striker, but they certainly need an upgrade on that left side.

Whether it’s Martinelli, Trossard, or Havertz up front, Arsenal need something more in those positions if they want to compete at the very top level.”
