Arsenal and Chelsea Position by Position Comparison to Prove that Arsenal Will Take Title

Conclusion

Arsenal have Chelsea beaten in seven of the eleven starting positions and by a long shot on the bench. While Chelsea boast a better defense, better striker and a more successful manager, Arsenal’s depth is what makes them so strong. Ramsey against Oscar could have very easily also been Wilshere or Cazorla against Oscar and the result would have been the same.

Likewise, Theo Walcott is going to have a huge part to play this season and he was not in my Arsenal starting XI either.

This Arsenal team is good, it is deep, and if you break it down, they have all the tools necessary to not only beat Chelsea in match ups but they have the quality to beat them to the title as well. Not only that, but if Wenger moves to grab Benzema and succeeds, nothing can stop the Gunners. Even without, Arsenal have what it takes.

This very well may end up being a two team race for the title.
