Former Man Utd star Michael Carrick makes huge Arsenal and Tottenham claim in top four race

Former Manchester United midfielder Michael Carrick says he would rather be in Arsenal's position over Tottenham as the season reaches its climax. It comes as the two North London rivals are in the midst of a race for the top four, with one place seemingly up for grabs to seal Champions League qualification for next season.

The latest turn in the battle came at the weekend, where both sides managed to secure victories. Spurs played first on Sunday, beating Leicester 3-1 thanks to Harry Kane’s opener and Son Heung-min’s brace.

Manager Antonio Conte claimed he was happy with the display from his side: “It was a good performance against a really good team. The game wasn't easy, and we knew very well that despite them making eight changes from the last game against Roma, you could see the quality, you can see the squad that Leicester has.”
