The Premier League 2023/24 campaign ended in disappointment for Mikel Arteta whose Gunners once again finished second to Manchester City. Despite Arsenal’s 2-1 win over Everton, Man City’s 3-1 triumph over West Ham ensured they would end up first, securing their fourth consecutive Premier League title.
Arteta has, however, made no doubt of his belief that Arsenal will win the league under his tenure and following the side’s win over the Toffees, the Spanish boss said: “There’s only one way to do it - you have to be more determined, you have to be more ambitious, you have to have a lot of courage and push every limit in everything that we have. If we keep knocking and being that close, in the end it will happen.”
89 points were accrued over the course of the season with 15 different names on the scorecards and 18 clean sheets from the 38 matches played. Following such a narrowly defeated season, here is how many points the Arsenal squad have picked up on Fantasy Premier League...
