The Gunners have made a flying start to the campaign under Mikel Arteta – winning three of their opening four league games.
Arsenal have also set up a Carabao Cup quarter-final tie against holders Manchester City.
And the Londoners are eager for more silverware having already lifted the FA Cup and Community Shield during Arteta’s brief time at the helm.
Having tied down captain Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang to a new long-term contract, while spending £45million on top midfield target Thomas Partey, many are predicting big things from Arsenal.
And club legend Wenger, who won three titles in 22 years, reckons Arteta can lead his men back to the summit of English football. 8
He told the Guardian: “I think there is a good team spirit and they have a good chance to do well.
“I believe it will not be very difficult to improve on the number of points they got last season.
“But I’m convinced Arsenal can be in the top four, if not more. Why not more?
“They can be the surprise package for me this year. They bought well, they strengthened the defence well, and they kept the players who were already there.
“In my last year I bought Aubameyang, they kept him. They have ingredient and no real weakness.”
