Paul Merson believes Arsenal are 'a million miles' off a Premier League title challenge and wouldn't win it with their current squad even with Pep Guardiola in charge.
The former Gunners striker isn't feeling any optimism since Mikel Arteta came in as manager because the team isn't capable of defending properly.
Arsenal sit a lowly ninth in the Premier League table at present and are eight points off the Champions League places.
There had been a slight upturn in Premier League results prior to the Covid-19 shutdown but Arteta hadn't been able to immediately remedy Arsenal's defensive failings.
