Gary Neville has expressed concern over Arsenal's attacking options after the club's unsuccessful pursuit of Ollie Watkins from Aston Villa. He argues that failing to secure a new striker sends a clear message about the inadequacy of current forwards like Kai Havertz. Neville emphasizes that Arsenal must enhance their attacking lineup in the summer to compete effectively in Premier League, given the disparity with stronger teams. His comments reflect a belief that Arsenal's current squad lacks the necessary quality to win major titles, drawing on his rich experience at Manchester United.
This has shone a massive spotlight on the toothlessness of Arsenal's forward players compared to what we're seeing at the other end of the pitch, Neville said on Sky Sports' coverage of last night's game.
They have to [strengthen in the position] this summer. I was supportive of them not panicking, finding the player they want, I get that. But when they bid for Ollie Watkins, they are sending a message to the rest of the squad, the ones up front aren't good enough.
