Gary Neville has said on LADbible TV that Arsenal are not a top-six club anymore, but Tottenham Hotspur are.
The Sky Sports pundit has said that Liverpool, Manchester United, Manchester City, Tottenham, Chelsea and Leicester City are now the Premier League top six.
The former Manchester United and England international defender believes that Arsenal are no longer a top-six club.
The pundit has added that he knows that Arsenal fans will now start quoting stats to him.
Neville said on LADbible TV: “Liverpool are in there. United are in there. City are in there. Chelsea are in there. Tottenham and Leicester in the last few years, I would say.
“Arsenal fans will probably now quote some stats now. They think I hate them anyway. They drain me. Start winning, and I will start praising you again.”
Getting back to glory days
Tottenham fans will absolutely love Neville’s claim, which is quite damning, to be honest.
After all, Spurs and Arsenal are bitter North London rivals.
Arsenal were regulars in the Champions League under then manager Arsene Wenger, but things are not so great at the moment.
The Gunners will not even play in the Europa League this season.
Leicester have narrowly missed out on the Premier League top four for the past two seasons, and many observers will back them to become regulars in the Champions League before Arsenal.
However, Arsenal remain a big club and a global brand, and perhaps in the coming years they will return to their glory days of the late 1990s and early 2000s when they were winning titles and playing wonderful football.
