Manchester United legend Gary Neville believes Liverpool are the only side that can stop Arsenal from winning the Premier League title this season. He still backs the Gunners to get the job done this season, as they have a balanced squad.Speaking on NBC Sports, Neville said that Liverpool would be in trouble if they lost Virgil van Dijk or Mohamed Salah during the season. He does not see that to be the case with the Gunners, as they have a backup in place for all positions, and said:"The reason I say I’m confident Arsenal will win the league is because you always think about what can stop a team. If Liverpool lost Virgil van Dijk or Mohamed Salah in previous seasons they would be in trouble. But I can’t think of any player Arsenal might lose now and it would mean they would lose the title… even the two centre-backs because of the summer signings. Every position is covered. Bukayo Saka was that player in the past but Noni Madueke came in when he was injured.""Everywhere, they are properly doubled up with the same level of quality or only a small drop-off. So who’s going to take it off them? They would have to beat themselves not to win it. I don’t think Man City are going to get back to a level they’ve been at previously and come back at Arsenal. Pep Guardiola is a genius but he hasn’t got the players or the team playing at the level needed. Liverpool are the only team but they would have to get back on track very quickly."Mikel Arteta's side are seven points clear of Liverpool after 10 matches in the season. The Gunners have conceded just three goals, keeping a clean sheet in their last seven matches.Gary Neville does not see Arsenal picking up record pointsManchester United legend Gary Neville was on his podcast on Saturday, November 1, claiming that Mikel Arteta's side are not going to win record points this season despite their star. He believes that they will finish with under 90 points and said:"They're not going to have to go and get 100 points, they're not going to have to get even 90 or 95 points to win the league, mid-80s, high 80s will win them this title, and they can do that."Arsenal's record of most points in a season stands at 90, the tally the Invincibles managed. The 2003/04 title remains the last time the Gunners won the Premier League.
