Alan Shearer Tips Chelsea as Arsenal’s Closest Premier League Title Rivals
Alan Shearer has named Arsenal as the team to beat in the Premier League after what he described as an impressive summer transfer window. The former Newcastle United striker believes Chelsea will provide Arsenal’s strongest challenge this season. He said Chelsea’s lack of European fixtures could give Xabi Alonso more time to work with his squad between league matches. Chelsea have started the 2026/27 campaign strongly, including a 4-3 win over Brighton. Meanwhile, David Seaman has identified Liverpool as another major threat to Arsenal’s title hopes.
