The former Real Madrid and Liverpool attacker said this after Arsenal defeated Sevilla 2-1 in an away Champions League tie on Tuesday.

I think they are that good,” Owen told TNT Sports. “But the problem is, and as Man City have shown, the very good teams in the league, if it’s your first time in the competition it can take you a long time to understand it, to get past these experienced teams , I think that’s what Arsenal might find this season. “On ability I think they’re the second or third best team in it. But can I see them go all the way based on this inexperience…it’s a massive ask, but they are good enough, ability-wise.
