Arsenal’s 4-0 win over Atletico Madrid has seen plaudits continue to flood in after an incredible start to the season – and legendary manager Arsene Wenger put them above title rivals Liverpool in one aspect of their game.Arsenal have won six of their opening eight Premier League games, drawing with Manchester City at the Emirates Stadium and only being undone by a Dominik Szoboszlai free-kick vs Liverpool.More impressively, Mikel Arteta has taken three wins from his first three Champions League games without conceding a goal, and so far, a quadruple remains on.One massive factor in trophy-laden sides taking the accolades is squad depth, and the knack of avoiding injuries – and legendary boss Arsene Wenger says Arsenal’s squad is the best equipped after Liverpool starting playing their stars out of position.Photo by Gareth Copley/Getty ImagesArsene Wenger says Arsenal have the ‘most complete squad’ in the Premier LeagueLiverpool boss Arne Slot has already had to play some of his squad out of position, which has led to Liverpool losing four games in a row for the first time since November 2014.Arsenal have not had that problem so far this season. Their squad depth is such that players such as Christian Norgaard, Kai Havertz, Ben White and Myles Lewis-Skelly have all featured in under 100 minutes of Premier League football, showcasing their depth.That’s due to some incredible transfer windows and recruitment, via top-quality squad planning from the top down.And with that in mind, Arsene Wenger says Arsenal simply wouldn’t fall into Liverpool’s ways as they have the most ‘complete squad’ in the Premier League.

Speaking on beIN Sports, he said: “I think they (Arsenal) have the most complete squad.”“Compare it for example, I saw Liverpool finishing the game vs Chelsea, they played [Dominik] Szoboszlai at right-back and [Ryan] Gravenberch at centre-back.“Arsenal would not be in these kinds of positions.”Unless injuries begin to ravage Arsenal’s squad, their form should continue having battled through a run of tricky fixtures so far in the Premier League.Photo by James Gill – Danehouse/Getty ImagesArsenal’s recruitment means they are well stocked in every area of the pitchWenger is not wrong in what he is saying. Liverpool have used three players at right-back already this season, with Arne Slot unable to decide on his best option.However, Jurrien Timber has been the league’s standout player in that position and he is even keeping Ben White out of the side.Goalkeeper David Raya has one of the best number two options behind him in Kepa Arrizabalaga, Riccardo Calafiori and Myles Lewis-Skelly boast arguably the best left-back depth in the league, whilst a centre-back cohort of Gabriel, William Saliba, Piero Hincapie and Cristhian Mosquera make up an incredible quartet.ClubPremier League goals conceded this seasonArsenal3Manchester City6Sunderland6Tottenham Hotspur7Newcastle United7Martin Zubimendi’s summer move to Arsenal has added composure in midfield, alongside Mikel Merino and Declan Rice, who is the world’s best dead-ball specialist according to Rio FerdinandMartin Odegaard, Ethan Nwaneri and Eberechi Eze are all incredible creative options, Gabriel Martinelli is in fine form alongside Leandro Trossard on the left, and Noni Madueke’s summer move from Arsenal to Chelsea has offered vital backup for Bukayo Saka if the latter becomes injured.Arsenal have quality all over the pitch and even a second XI could challenge for a Champions League spot.
