Arsenal legend Alan Smith was interviewed recently and talked about the Premier League title race, Chelsea's sale of Madueke and other topics.
Smith said: "Although Chelsea performed well against Liverpool in the past few weeks, I don't think they still have the strength to compete for the championship. Manchester City is a bit elusive at the moment. We originally thought they would not be able to form the momentum to compete for the championship this year. But I think they may continue to put pressure on Arsenal. Na and Liverpool are causing trouble. Haaland is in good form and Rodri is about to return. "
"In my opinion, Manchester City is still a contender, but they may be ranked third because I still think Arsenal performed well last season, but now there is a problem. Quite a bit, isn't it? Especially on the defensive end, but I think this will form a three-legged championship pattern. "
When asked whether Chelsea would regret the decision to sell Madueke, Alan Smith said: "How Chelsea feels about these personnel flows, the outside world has no way of knowing. But Gittens is not an upgrade option. He always gets lost on the court and we have yet to see his best form. "
" Madueke's transfer was puzzling. It felt unusual at the time, and it seems even more abrupt now, but isn't this the current norm for Chelsea? "
