David Seaman has admitted he’s been surprised by Arsenal’s ability to pick up results while not being at their best this season.

The Arsenal legend has been speaking on Seaman Says and feels Mikel Arteta’s men are yet to reach the heights they managed last season.

Arsenal picked up a 3-1 win over Burnley on the weekend as they returned to winning ways in the league following the controversial loss at St James’ Park.

The Gunners currently sit just one point behind league leaders Manchester City and have only tasted defeat once in the Premier League this term.

Yet, Arsenal got off to a flyer last time out and it’s led to some questioning the level of their performances recently.

And David Seaman has admitted that the Gunners’ early-season form has surprised him. 

Seaman shares what’s shocked him about Arsenal

Speaking on the latest episode of his podcast, Seaman shared what has shocked him about Arsenal this season.

“Arsenal are surprising me if I’m honest because we’re not playing as well as we did last season, but we’re getting the results,” the Gunners legend said.

While Arteta’s side haven’t been at their best this season, it can only be a positive sign they are still picking up positive results.

It’s no secret that Arsenal ran out of steam towards the end of the last campaign, which ultimately cost them the title.

Arsenal fans will be hopeful their side can find their best form towards the business end of the season this time around.

Arteta lost a key man in Granit Xhaka over the summer and it’s fair to say that Kai Havertz hasn’t filled the void left by the former skipper.

The Gunners have also had to deal with several injuries to key players, including the likes of Gabriel Jesus and Martin Odegaard.
