Arsenal transfer news LIVE: Latest updates from huge summer at the Emirates

Premier League table predicted

Arsenal will finish second again, according to a supercomputer’s latest prediction.

An AI-powered Opta supercomputer calculated where each team will end up by simulating the Season 10,000 times.

Arteta’s corner kings

Arsenal’s set-piece prowess looks to be carrying on from last season with signs of some subtle changes.

That’s the kind of form that almost won the title as they agonisingly missed out to Manchester City on the final day.

Set-piece coach and expert Nicolas Jover has transformed the North Londoners with his NFL-style routines, both in attack and defence.

And in their final pre-season outing – Sunday’s 2-0 win over Lyon – both goals came from Declan Rice corners via William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes headers in the first half.

But while much is the same, that win also showed that Jover has a few more tricks up his sleeve for Arsenal’s opponents this campaign.
