A new contract for the manager, a new anthem for the supporters and a renewed sense that Champions League football will be coming to Emirates Stadium next season. Arsenal’s 2-1 win over Leeds is not quite enough to secure Champions League football for next season, but a win against their north London rivals Tottenham next weekend certainly will be.
Eddie Nketiah has become a key player for the Gunners in recent weeks, taking over the mantle as Arsenal’s main striker and scoring the two key goals in the first half against Leeds. He has now scored more Premier League goals from open player this season than Lacazette. football.london understands that the club still remain optimistic that Nketiah will sign a new contract despite the former England Under-21 man rejecting several offers.
Arsenal have now won their last four Premier League games in a row, with wins over Chelsea, Manchester United, West Ham and Leeds coming over the space of just a month. It’s an impressive return from Arteta’s side considering their struggles a month beforehand when they lost three consecutive games to Crystal Palace, Southampton and Brighton.
