WAF Context
Arsenal are being tipped to break Chelsea's Premier League record of 15 goals conceded in a single season, a mark club legend John Terry claimed would not be surpassed. The reigning champions won last season partly due to defensive strength, though they conceded 27 goals. They have made a strong start to the current campaign.
What we know
- Chelsea hold the record with just 15 goals conceded in one Premier League season.
- John Terry stated this record was unlikely to be broken.
- Arsenal won last season's title with a solid defensive record despite 27 goals against.
Why it matters
Arsenal's defensive solidity is a defining strength. If they can maintain tighter rearguard discipline than last season, they could challenge a long-standing defensive benchmark and reinforce their credentials as title contenders.
