What a difference a couple of weeks can make. It's not too long ago when Arsenal were on course to pay the price for not winning the Premier League title.
But following events that have transpired in Serie A, not to mention the top-four battle in England and a major turnaround in the Bundesliga title race in the past week, the Gunners' imminent return to the Champions League is looking a lot more appealing now than it previously was.
It's no secret that Arsenal have struggled in European competitions in recent years and being knocked out of the Europa League at the round of 16 stage at the hands of Sporting CP this season means Mikel Arteta's side are currently ranked 23rd in the UEFA coefficient table.
