Arsenal might have to do what Man Utd did last season to get into the Champions League next season.
Five reasons...
Why we are worse than the other five clubs competing with us for the Champions League.
1. Man City is untouchable compared to other teams due to their spending and the league table proves it
2. Chelsea will probably get into the top four through the best defence in the league
3. Man Utd could've created big gap from the rest if it wasn't Mourinho being so negative in big games especially away from home, but still they could make it due to De Gea (saves 15 points for them every season).
4. Liverpool will get into the top four due to their goal scoring record as only Man City has scored more than them. Even though they lost Coutinho they still have a better chance because Klopp isn't afraid of spending money unlike Wenger. I am hearing Mahrez might come in to replace him, which is a quality buy, in my opinion.
5. Tottenham will miss out top 4 due to moving into Wembley this season.
6. Arsenal is struggling to score goals compared to our rivals and we are shipping goals in from behind. Even Brighton and Burnley have conceded less goals than us. That's really unbelievable.
We really need to improve defence because I get it Sanchez is not the same guy anymore since we refused to sell him. However, we have the option to sell to a rival outside the Premier League by asking them to swap one of their quality players for Sanchez because on January transfers it's really hard to find a good deal better than that.

No we don't, Sanchez can refuse to move - which he will if it is not where HE wants to go - due to our management incompetence Sanchez holds all the cards

How are you going to win it exactly? There are better teams in there than you who will have the same aim.

Think it will be between Liverpool, Arsenal and Spurs for fourth will Liverpool currently a strong favourite.
It would be interesting if Wenger found himself in the same position as Mourinho last year and had to decide whether to prioritise Europa League over fading top 4 chances. The problem might be that the there are stronger teams left in the EL this year.

Napoli, Dortmund and Atletico will be very hard to beat if you come across them, probably favour Arsenal over Napoli and Dortmund but not Atletico.

I would say Napoli are probably the best team in the Ropey now, although Atletico will always be hard to beat. Napoli would exploit Arsenal at the back. Arsene, however, as has been shown by regular thrashings in the CL, has no shame.

Napoli in a title race though, so Europa may be low down on their priorities.

We had an easy ride in the EL last season. The teams left in it this year are far stronger. Will be v tough to go all the way in it.

Arsenal are in a race with Spurs for 5th/6th so cannot take it easy. However they won't be prioritising the FA Cup.

It's sadly true. I don't think we'd even be in the CL now if it had this year's last 32. Jose may have got the sack too.
