Mikel Arteta has inadvertently disclosed the major tactical change he is employing this season with the hope it will help him beat Manchester Cityto the Premier League title.

Arsenal came close to winning the domestic crown last term for the first time since 2004 following an impressive run of form.

However, Arteta's charges fell short in that mission despite topping the charts for the better part of the campaign, with City seeing them off in the title race to retain the trophy.

According to The Mirror, the Gunners' boss mounted a title challenge based on a settled line-up with a 4-2-3-1 system which served them well.

The only tweak that Arteta employed with his largely predictable team tactics was using an inverted full-back.

However, that is unlikely to be the case this season, with Arteta expected to keep opponents guessing using different formations and tactics.

This has largely been occasioned by the signing of more versatile players in the shape of Kai Havertz and Declan Rice, who joined the club this summer.

Arteta has since disclosed his intent to play to his team’s strengths and opponents’ weaknesses in a bid to put Arsenal on the advantage side of things.
