Arsenal are still considered eligible to compete in the Champions League next season

DBasia.news – Former Arsenal player, Lauren believes the Gunners are still able to compete for one Champions League ticket next season. According to him, Arsenal have the ability to achieve these targets.

The 2020-2021 season, until midway through at least, has not been going well for Arsenal. The Gunners were struggling in the middle of the standings.

Currently, Mikel Arteta’s squad is only in 10th position with 27 points. Arsenal are seven points behind Liverpool who are in fourth place or the deadline for the Champions League zone.

However, Lauren believes Arsenal will be in the top four when the competition ends. Lauren considered, a club like Arsenal should compete at the top.

“You could say this is a successful season for Arsenal if they are in the Champions League position,” explained Lauren as reported by Genting Bet.

“Then, in the following season, they have to be able to fight in the league and be at the top. That is something that a club like Arsenal should be targeting,” he continued.

Meanwhile, for short-term targets, Lauren thinks Arsenal can win the title in the Europa League. Currently, the Gunners are one of the clubs with the greatest strength in the second caste of the European competition.

“Arsenal have the quality of winning the Europa League this season. Indeed, there are still some good clubs in the competition. However, if Arsenal can keep their players fit, it can be achieved.”

“In addition, Arsenal often keep clean sheets. They also often win aerial duels up front. That advantage shows Arsenal can win the Europa League,” said Lauren.

Arsenal’s appearance has began to improve. In the last six matches, Arsenal came home with five wins. Next, Arsenal will face Southampton in the fourth round of the FA Cup on Saturday (23/1).
