Shocking Revelation: Journalist Gives 2 Reasons Why Man United and Arsenal Will Replace Chelsea In Top Four This Season

The 2022/23 English Premier League season will be one of the most competitive in all they have had in the history of English football.

The new season has begun already, and teams are ready to outshine their opponents, with their new signings in good shape for a debut.

Arsenal have identified their vulnerable and strong side of the team, having won their opening match against the Eagles on Saturday night, thanks to the goal from Gabriel Martnelli and a deflection from Bukayo Saka's strike.

The Clubs have done well in the addendum they made to their teams in the summer transfer, as they would be waiting patiently to reap the return on investment they have made.

There are reasons why either Arsenal or Manchester United could replace Chelsea in the top 4 race due to their underperformance in the pre-season tours.

Manchester United and Arsenal are coming up heavily to unseat Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea, as they would not watch last season's history repeating itself.

1. Defensive concern.

Chelsea's season would be put under check when they take on Everton in their opening match. Since the departure of Antonio Rudiger to Real Madrid, the backline has been shaky and porous.

Azpilicueta made a U-turn, as he has extended his contract with the Blues and he would be featured alongside Thiago Silva and Koulibaly to make Rudiger's departure unfelt.

Much cannot be said on the side of the midfielders, as Chiwell, Kovacic, and Ngolo Kante are on standby. But the fact is that Ngolo Kante has not been at his best for a few games he has played, and that could be a big concern for the Blues.

Raheem Sterling joined the Blues from Manchester City to help foster and bolster the front line. But to avoid setting up fluid attackers, the guys in front would need to upbeat their games to become a threat to the opponents.
