No excuses now: Expert insists Arsenal must win Premier League after sealing deal for Eagles star
Nigerian football analyst Charles Anazodo has boldly declared that Arsenal now have no excuse not to clinch the Premier League title, following their reported agreement to sign Crystal Palace star Eberechi Eze.
Anazodo, a well-known journalist and Super Sport analyst, didn’t mince words after news broke that Arsenal has reached an agreement with Crystal Palace for the signing of Eze.
According to Pulse Sports Nigeria, the Gunners have moved decisively to secure the talented midfielder, beating fierce rivals Tottenham Hotspur to his signature, a move confirmed by top transfer insiders Fabrizio Romano and The Athletic.
The urgency in Arsenal’s pursuit came after a knee injury to Kai Havertz left their attacking options stretched thin.
With Eze’s electrifying form, the 27-year-old scored nine goals in his last 13 matches last season, including the FA Cup final winner against Manchester City, Arsenal see him as the perfect addition to elevate their attacking firepower.
Arsenal’s willingness to meet Palace’s demands is further fueled by Eze’s desire to join the club where he once played at academy level, making the transfer a highly anticipated reunion.
Reacting to these developments, Anazodo took to social media and proclaimed, “Eberechi Eze becomes Arsenal’s next signing and there is absolutely no reason why they shouldn’t win the Premier League title. None!!!!!”
His confident statement, however, sparked lively debate among fans and fellow analysts. One user questioned, “Is football that straightforward, bros?” while another asked, “Sir, are you sure you’re happy with Arsenal signing?”

Some even pointed to Chelsea’s struggles, saying, “While Chelsea, who had over 40 players last season, couldn’t win it. Well-done Charles.”
Despite the mixed reactions, Anazodo’s view shows the excitement surrounding Eze’s move and the high expectations now resting on Arsenal’s shoulders as they aim to end their league title drought.
With this signing, the Gunners appear ready to mount a serious challenge for Premier League glory after back-to-back-to-back second place finishes.
