After Arsenal earned a point at Old Trafford, Arsene Wenger spoke about the upcoming FA Cup final.
Speaking to the press post-match, the boss made it clear once again that we wouldn’t be underestimating our position.
The Gunners have the opportunity to win their second FA Cup in a row on May 30th against Aston Villa and although on paper we should win, especially considering Villa’s 6-1 thumping against Southampton this weekend, cup finals are a different kettle of fish entirely.
The point gained against Manchester United means we hold third spot and still have a chance at second. We sit five points behind Manchester City in second with a game in hand, so second spot is no longer ours to win. However, with our remaining fixtures being easily winnable, the most we can always hope for a Man City slip up.
A major improvement we’ve seen this season is getting points in matches like this, an aspect of our game that the boss was quick to point out.
