Arsenal main focus at the moment is to improve their game, indeed so far Arsenal performance in the league has been very good and managed to score many goals, but for the Champions League it seems that they must be able to improve their mentality and performances to be even better because the competition in the Champions League is tighter, currently the Champions League League leaves a strong and experienced team, So Arteta should have used the experience against Porto as a lesson, I think Porto was a slightly weak team in the last 16 yesterday but Arsenal had to work hard enough to beat him and get here, and now they are awaited by a team that is maybe 3 times stronger than Porto.
At the moment Arsenal should not talk about trophies or even qualify for the final, because indeed their position is a little difficult and better for Arsenal to continue to focus on improving their performance ahead of the quarter-final match later, because surely Arsenal will also not be able to avoid big teams like Manchester City and Madrid in the Champions League in drawing later.
The UCL is up and running and we’re already in the Quater Final of this phase and we’ve got some faces or teams we’ve not seen in a long while. Talking about the likes of Arsenal who’ve been absent from this competition in a while and haven’t been able to go past this phase in over 8 years and counting. Now this Arsenal team are in the last 8 after going past Porto on penalties they were able to prove why they should be in the last 8. You can see the jubilation from across the fans round the globe on their qualification.
This also shows how improved this squad has grown and that is a big commendation for Arteta for the job he’s done. The main target for this team is to win at least a trophy as they still have about 2 titles in chase that’s the League and the UCL. Our main focus is the UCL and Arsenals chances of winning the UCL this season. We all know how young this Arsenal’s squad is and sincerely I don’t think they have the expertise to go about winning the UCL. The UCL is the Elite competition between clubs in Europe and for a team like Arsenal, you can’t in any way see them as favorites.
We have got big teams like Real Madrid and Man City who are the favorites to win this competition this season. Well the Quater And Semi Final draws are out and we have the 2 favorites facing each other in the Quater Final with the winner to face whosoever wins the match between Arsenal and Dortmund. Yes, Arsenal can take out Dortmund but what’s the possibility of them being able to eliminate a team like Real Madrid who are the big boys of this competition with most of her players having huge experience. Arsenal just needs to focus on improving their play rather than starting to think of winning the UCL because that might not be a reality this season.
