Man United's defeat to Atletico cost England a representative in the Champions League but it was a joy for Arsenal.
Losing 0-1 to Atletico at Old Trafford, MU was eliminated from the 1/8 round of the Champions League. What does this have to do with Arsenal?
It's actually quite relevant. Currently, Arsenal is the team with the best chance of finishing the season in 4th place, which means a place in the Champions League next season. This will be a huge achievement for Mikel Artete's teachers and students if they know that the last time they attended this playground was in 2017.
However, since 2013, UEFA has stipulated that each member federation is only allowed to have a maximum of 5 clubs participating in the Champions League. So it will happen that if MU wins the Champions League and West Ham win the Europa League, these two teams will automatically have tickets to the Champions League next season, regardless of whether their position in the Premier League is outside the Top. 4 or not.
If that happens, MU, West Ham will join the top 3 teams in the Champions League, and the 4th team, Arsenal will have to go down to the Europa League. Now, that small risk is gone and the Gunners have complete control of all decisions in their hands.
At the moment, Arsenal are 1 point ahead of MU and have played less than 3 matches. The chance for them to finish in the Top 4 is very much. However, the road ahead is still very difficult. On tonight, the Gunners will have to welcome superpower Liverpool at home.
Not stopping there, Arsenal's schedule is still full of pitfalls with great battles against Chelsea and a direct confrontation with MU.
