According to a report by Football London on Tuesday November 10, 2026, Arsenal enter the international break six points clear at the Premier League summit after collecting nine victories from their opening ten matches, maintaining impressive consistency throughout the campaign so far.
Their latest success came against Hull City, where Martin Ødegaard scored a late winner to secure three points. However, despite the result, questions have emerged about Arsenal's attacking performances.
Supporters have noticed that Arsenal increasingly depend on narrow victories, winning their last three matches by one-goal margins. Eight of their twelve combined league and European victories followed similar patterns.
Some supporters fear their impressive winning run could eventually end. One fan warned: "The minute they can't get the one goal they need, there will be question marks about how they play."
Arsenal's attacking numbers have also attracted attention. They have scored fifteen Premier League goals across ten matches, matching Ipswich's tally, while five other clubs have registered higher totals.
Brighton, currently second, have scored twenty-six goals despite maintaining similarly impressive defensive performances. Opta's expected points calculations also suggest Arsenal are collecting approximately seven more points than their underlying performances indicate.
Nevertheless, other supporters believe Arsenal's ability to grind out results demonstrates championship mentality. Their defensive organisation and game management have frequently prevented opponents from creating meaningful opportunities after conceding first.
One supporter highlighted their resilience, saying: "They're hard to beat. Even when they find it hard to win, they're in such a more stable position."
Despite the concerns, Arsenal remain strong contenders for domestic honours. However, Mikel Arteta and Andrea Berta may need attacking reinforcements in January to improve their firepower and strengthen Champions League ambitions.
