There have been reservations among some fans about Araujo's ability and reliability but the positives of this move far outweigh the negatives.
Former Liverpool striker Michael Owen (Picture: Getty) Michael Owen believes Arsenal are favourites to retain their Premier League title this season as he revealed his top-six prediction. Following three successive second-place finishes, Mikel Arteta finally guided Arsenal to their first league title in 22 years last season. And with pre-season well underway, the Gunners will soon turn their attention to the challenge of defending their title. The early arrivals of Christos Tzolis and Illan Meslier have been bolstered by the marquee arrival of Bruno Guimaraes from Newcastle United.

But the Gunners are still looking to strengthen on the left wing after missing out on Vinicius Junior, while a back injury to William Saliba has forced them to consider defensive reinforcements. Former Liverpool and Manchester United striker Owen believes Arsenal should be considered favourites to win the title again this season, but insists the Gunners will face a battle on their hands from the chasing pack. ‘I think there can be a few title challengers this season,’ Owen told Metro. Arsenal will look to defend their title (Picture: Getty) ‘You look at Arsenal’s points tally and it wasn’t in the nineties so they only have to drop a little and with Chelsea not in Europe, they can mount a challenge. ‘New managers at Liverpool and City could hit a good run of form early on and be in with a shout as well. Tottenham have signed well too. ‘So Arsenal are favourites for sure, but it’s not a foregone conclusion that they win it comfortably.’ It has been a busy off-season for virtually all of Arsenal’s potential title rivals, with a slew of managerial changes ahead of the new season. Andoni Iraola is the new man in the dugout on Merseyside (Picture: Getty) Enzo Maresca is back at Manchester City, while Andoni Iraola and Xabi Alonso have been tasked with improving the fortunes of Liverpool and Chelsea after their respective poor domestic campaigns last season. And Owen has faith that the Spaniards can do just that as he tipped Liverpool and Chelsea to be Arsenal’s closest rivals this season. ‘Last season at Liverpool wasn’t great, the style of play wasn’t as good as it had been and they conceded far too many goals,’ Owen said. ‘But Slot leaving and Iraola replacing him means a new style of play. He brings a lot of excitement from the way he played at Bournemouth, but Liverpool are a much bigger club and the pressure mounts up now. Xabi Alonso has taken over at Chelsea (Picture: Getty) ‘I do think Liverpool need more, but it looks like Barcola is the one they want and it will cost them a huge amount of money to get him in. But if they can do that and add more depth, more quality, then they can really challenge for the title.’ On Chelsea’s title hopes, Owen added: ‘Chelsea have once again spent big in the transfer window, but maybe this time, they have a manager who can control the dressing room and get the best out of the players, for them to play as a team and be consistent. ‘It is a big factor not having European football and should give them a chance to perform well during the season.’ Having come in midway through last season as an interim, Michael Carrick is also preparing for his first full season in charge at Old Trafford. Owen's predicted top-six for this season Arsenal Liverpool Chelsea Manchester City Manchester United Tottenham But Owen fears that the added demands of Champions League football will cost the Red Devils in the league this time around. ‘I don’t think the squad is there right now,’ he said. ‘They need to add a few more players to cope with the increased demands of all competitions, especially the Champions League. ‘I would think Man Utd are looking to strengthen more and I would be surprised if they didn’t. ‘So I am hoping they can add more quality, more dep

Unfortunate not to have gone into nine minutes added on time (where did that come from?!) only one goal up against a League One team and more than held their own against AS Roma, a Serie A team. If they add a couple of sensible defensive and midfield additions in the next couple of weeks, play-offs may be a distinct possibility. Hayden Mullins is showing a positive approach to how County set themselves up.
On Sunday at Anfield against Monaco, Andoni Iraola was very honest after their 3-2 defeat. Two weeks out from the start of the Premier League campaign, Iraola's verdict was that his side had "work to do" because they could not sustain the level that he wanted for the duration of a game. Iraola said that his side played a good first 30 minutes but "they don't have much more, in terms of the levels required to play like this".
Ronald Araujo says he expects his attributes to suit the Premier League perfectly after securing a season-long loan move from Barcelona to Liverpool. "I can't wait to get started," Araujo said. Araujo says his "sincere, frank and honest conversation" with Reds manager Andoni Iraola was "great" and a big factor in his decision to join.
Many believe Andoni Iraola's style is more aligned with the 'heavy metal' football Anfield had come to love under Jurgen Klopp. With teams more likely to sit deep against Liverpool, having lots of possession is a newer challenge Iraola has to tackle, and he has looked to do this while sticking to the intense and chaotic style that typified his previous sides. Liverpool have looked to build up short at times with their goalkeeper, four defenders and one or two central midfielders deep.

Summer signing Antonio Silva says he is a "modern centre-back" who will suit Bournemouth's football after he made his second pre-season appearance for the club against Real Betis on Saturday. The 22-year-old joined the Cherries at the start of August from his boyhood club Benfica in Portugal, and believes he is adjusting well to the change of scenery. "My adaptation has been very good and I'm very happy to be here," Silva told BBC Radio Solent.
