17 points behind the third, 9 points behind Chelsea(4th), 4 behind United(5th), 3 behind Spurs(6th) not looking so bad.
Most of all despite the loss against Chelsea, Arsenal were clearly the better team and with a compressive victory against Man U. This team is slowly turning its fortune around, it got its vibe, togetherness, and organization back and support of the 12th man ..all pointers towards a rise in form and performance for Arsenal.
As for the top 4 competitors, none of them look solid enough to pull away like the top 3 did. So things are looking on the up and if Arsenal pick up form and started a solid run of wins being realistic. Is top four still a possibility?
IMO It will be toughest one yet as the top 3 are well away and only one spot left, maybe winning Europa will be the best way to get into CL.
Top four still a possibility?

It just needs for you to go on a good run and for the others to continue being inconsistent so yes. Same applies to us.

Top 3 set, anything can happen with the rest.
Makes for an exciting 2nd half of the season

Yeah it is because the other teams above have hardly been solid all season. We’ll need a really good run of form for second half of the season, and probably some signings to stand a chance.
But it is a huge ask from this point, despite an improvement in performance under Arteta it’s still very early days so we’ll have to wait and see. I don’t think we have enough quality in this squad to finish 4th

If we continue to play like we did in the first half against Chelsea & Utd, and defend like we did last night- forget top 4, i can see us winning the Europa League this season.

Let's win back to back first. No point talking about top 4 right now.

It may actually be easier to win the Europa. I don't see any teams that scare me in that competition.

Nah your squad’s still sh’t and you will eventually dip again. If you think you’ll play like this for the rest of the season you’re a maniac

We finished one point behind the top 4 positions last season and only strengthened last summer. Our players were clearly underperforming with the previous manager. There is no reason why we shouldn't play like that. And actually better.

It would take Championship form to get us top 4. Who knows, but personally I think we have a better chance of winning the Europa League if Arteta can maintain/improve upon the standard set so far

Our competition is very poor this season, worse than it's been for a long time but sadly we are/have been absolute awful ourselves. Realistically it'll be a huge task to get top four, not impossible but unlikely
