Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher has challenged Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger to make the "big additions" in the transfer market and turn his side into genuine Premier League contenders next season.
The Gunners are currently second in the table and host leaders Chelsea at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday.
Former Reds centre-back Carragher thinks that Wenger's men will be serious challengers next term if they enjoy a good summer transfer window.
He told the Daily Mail: "With a 10-point advantage, even if Jose Mourinho loses to Arsene Wenger for the first time on Sunday it won't stop his side becoming champions.
"Next year, though, Chelsea won't have it all their own way and no team is better placed than Arsenal to dislodge them. There is a different feel to their form and performances this time around and Wenger said recently he could 'smell' something happening.
"You just hope, however, Wenger and Arsenal's board don't get fooled into thinking they have got all the tools they need at their disposal. This is not the time to be complacent. This is the summer when Arsenal must go for it and make the big additions that will stop them being nearly-men."
Arsenal lost the corresponding fixture2-0 at Stamford Bridge in October.
