Arsenal has assembled a top-tier team in recent years, and they have a promising future.
The Gunners were middling in the middle of the table in 2019 when Mikel Arteta assumed over. They have now made two title challenges in the last two seasons.
Although the rebuilding process took some time, in 2022 everything started to come together, and Arsenal has been one of the top teams in the nation ever since.
Arsenal’s defense has been essential to their success. The Gunners’ back line is among the greatest in the world of football, despite once being a weakness on the squad.
After Arsenal’s Champions League draw against Atalanta, Rio Ferdinand has since issued a strong assessment of the team’s defense.
According to Rio Ferdinand, Arsenal’s defense is among the finest in the Premier League.
With William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes at center back, two of the strongest back-court combinations on the continent, Ferdinand thinks Arsenal have the best back four in the Premier League.
The legendary player for Manchester United also gave Ben White and David Raya credit for their roles to Arsenal’s outstanding defense.
When asked if Gabriel and Saliba were the most memorable duo on TNT Sports, Ferdinand responded, “Yes, without a doubt.” They are, in my opinion. Over the past few seasons, they have demonstrated that.
They’re unwavering. They’re challenging. They have several methods for doing it. Your combination is excellent. Saliba likes to cover and sweep a little bit and is a little more composed.
Gabriel is more of a Martin Keown type who plays on the front foot. He plays with an aggressive style. They really do go great together.
However, I want to stress that it goes beyond those two. Ben White needs to step up, enter the game, and make it a three. Additionally, David Raya, the goalie, is developing into a star.
