For me, as a big Arsenal fan, just to be in the top 4 is already an achievement for them. the reason is, how long has Arsenal always been absent in the Champions League competition. if I'm not mistaken, lastly The Gunners competed in UCL 2015/16. now, they have a great opportunity to experience the atmosphere of the Champions League competition. from the start, Arteta's target was to enter the top 4 of the standings.
just because they are on the right path to silverware, Arteta is on a mission to capitalize on that. unfortunately, in the last two matches against Liverpool and the match against West Ham, their consistency experienced several problems. one of them, several important defenders who suffered injuries. plus, some quarterbacks underperform.
Yeah I too share the same feeling. Thanks to long consistent run earlier we are enjoying a comfortable table top position. We have confirmed CL ticket and we have a good squad and great level of confidence inside the team. I think we already have achieved something and just because we are so close to be at the top is what makes us push hard for it. It's a tough job with City closing in so really wish we can make it a season to remember as we have good chance here.
Even so, Arsenal are still at the top of the table with a difference of 4 points with City. it's just that, City have one match postponed. if City do not run into problems, it is not impossible for Pep Guardiola's team to take over the leaders of the standings. yes, anyway, I have to be realistic despite being an Arsenal fan. even so, this season is not over yet there are still a number of matches that must be played by both teams. Arsenal could slip up in their next few matches, especially City who have a busy schedule. of course, it has the potential to slip in some of the matches. in essence, the Premier League still offers interesting matches and the title race is still open for both teams. Let's just enjoy every moment.
It's now matter of consistency. Whoever is consistent gets the title now. Guardiola has the dense squad but we have a young squad brimming with confidence. As a fan, I am rooting in for Arsenal but given the City's history it sometimes makes me biting my nails still. I hope we don't slip up here in the remaining matches is what I can say. City are also pushing in hard for CL so we might get chance if City slips up later.
