Reyes believes his former club will manage to win the three-horse race for the Premier League title.
“Of course people are disappointed that Arsenal have gone so long without winning a trophy,” said Reyes to The Mirror.
“There is pressure building on them to deliver but I am convinced it will come to an end this season. They have a strong squad of players who gained valuable experience playing together over a number of years and you can see from their results that the patience Arsene Wenger has with them is finally about to pay off.
“I was surprised last season when some of the supporters grew impatient and turned on Wenger. With the exception of Sir Alex Ferguson at Manchester United, there is no better manager in the game.
“Wenger is smart, an exceptional coach who loathes losing and remains deeply ambitious. There is no real pressure on him other than that he puts on himself because the vast majority of Arsenal supporters and the club’s board worship him.
“He’s so unique in his thinking as well. No other club could assemble a young team like he has and unearth the talent he has brought to the club.
“People talk about Cesc Fabregas as if his move back to Spain is imminent but I can’t see him leaving Arsenal now or in the foreseeable future.
“He is in his element and captains a side with vast potential.
“Arsenal may not win the league because they face immense opposition from Chelsea and a Manchester United side that has clearly been weakened by the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo to Real Madrid.
“But I wouldn’t bet against Arsenal winning it either if they can maintain their form throughout the campaign.
“I was impressed with Chelsea when we played them. They are strong and clinical in front of goal and are hungry for success.
“Arsenal’s brand of football may have failed to land them trophies in recent seasons but that is about to come to end.
“I would be worried about them if I was Manchester United or Chelsea.”
