Gilberto Silva has spoken out about his former Arsenal club.
The Brazilian midfielder has just left Arsenal after six years for Greek side Panathinaikos for a fee of ₤11 million.
He saw this season as a pressure one for the club as they would need a trophy or two to ease that pressure.
Speaking on Arsenal TV he said that he thought that both Chelsea and Manchester United would still be the clubs to beat as they grow stronger by the year.
He praised Arsene Wenger for strengthening the squad after the departure of himself Hleb and Flamini by signing French International Samir Nasri from Olympique Marseilles.
He concluded by saying that it was a young squad that should improve with hard work.
