On February 7, Arsenal star Alain Smith said Arsenal would beat Tottenham hotspur in the competition for the top four because Arsenal had team spirit.
Arsenal are currently sixth in the Premier League table, but only two points less than fourth-placed Manchester United, while Tottenham Hotspur, who have one less game, share arsenal. Arsenal's squad changes were small during the winter transfer period, only to let go of former captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. Spurs brought in Bentankur and Kulusevsky, while releasing Ali, Ndombele, Lo Celso, Gil and many other players.
Alain Smith, who has played for Arsenal for years, has predicted this season's battle for fourth place in the Premier League: "It's really hard to choose, but I don't see United achieving that goal, they wouldn't have been in the top four if they had been playing like this. Maybe Manchester United will recover and let's see what happens next, but at the moment Old Trafford seems to have too many problems to solve. ”
Alain Smith went on to say: "It seems to me that the fourth battle will only take place between two clubs in North London, Arsenal and Tottenham, which will be very attractive. Perhaps West Ham (currently in fifth place) are not strong enough, especially if Antonio is injured. ”
Alain Smith is more bullish on the old arsenal: "Tottenham play a few fewer rounds and can overtake Arsenal if they win, but I will only be on Arsenal's side. I support Arteta because Arsenal have come a long way this season and there is a close team spirit within Arsenal. There are fewer problems to solve here than Tottenham, and that's why I'm bullish on them. ”
