Manchester United seems to have to forget about the champions league next season, they are four points behind Arsenal who are in fourth place in the standings with one game remaining. Currently Arsenal appear extraordinary, Arteta has been able to bring the Gunners to the top of the standings. Arsenal must be able to maintain a positive game by reaping full points in every match, including the match against Manchester United at the Emirates Stadium on 23 April.
Yep, they have to bury their desire to be in UCL if their performance is still like this and there is no significant progress there.
They are playing worse now especially at the back and so far it hasn't improved so don't have high hopes for a return to the Champions League.
Their current competitors are very good and quite consistent because Arsenal and Tottenham are performing very well at the moment so it is certain that United are slowly falling behind now.
Man Utd major priority now is to give top 4 spot a shot, now that they are out of this season UCL, they only have the league matches to play and I believe they will like to fight till last day of the season, but it's very unfortunate that their current standing on the table is not favorable because of consistent performance of Arsenal and Tottenham who are the likely contenders for the spot, at the end of the season Man Utd will likely qualify for Europa league, as it is now Arsenal would give room for any flop that can warrant or stop their top 4 spot.
