That is the verdict of legendary Liverpool defender and ESPN FC pundit Steve Nicol. New Arsenal head coach Unai Emery has brought in five new players so far in his first transfer window in charge. Goalkeeper Bernd Leno, defenders Stephan Lichtsteiner and Sokratis, and midfielders Lucas Torreira and Matteo Guendouzi have given some Arsenal supporters plenty of optimism for the upcoming campaign. But Nicol does not think that is enough to break into the Champions League qualification places, which have eluded the Gunners for the last two seasons.
