Every match for Arteta & Co. is important now. The door to Champions league through Europa might seem easier but we still are in the mix of top 4 in one of the strangest season of all time.
We play Burnley (A), Spurs (H), West Ham (A) before we see Liverpool at Emirates. Those 3 matches are must win and will bring us in the champions league spot fight. With current Liverpool form and the fact that we beat them last year, we might be able to get a point or who knows, even a win!
Rest of the fixtures are easier in April – Sheff Utd (A), Fulham (H), Everton (H).
If we managed to get 18 points of these 21 available in next 2 months, which we must I should say, then we are in the mix of top 4 for sure.
Burnley earlier in the season beat us 1-0 at Emirates. We had a bad run, we lost lots of matches which we should have won, red cards everywhere, players injured and some non-sense coaching. Introduction of Emile-Smith Rowe in the line up gave a boost, Saka is in brilliant form and Auba seems to have got his form back, I am confident we won’t find it difficult to earn the 3 points.
#COYG, lets win this and fight for the Champions League spot. I don’t want Arteta to make the same mistake Emery did, prioritizing Europa and then not making CL football either way. We have a good squad, we already beat Leicester with Saka, Auba, Partey on bench.
