UEFA Champions League Is Arsenal’s Birthright – Iwobi

By Augustine Akhilomen

Super Eagles forward, Alex Iwobi has
reiterated that the Champions League remain Arsenal’s birth-right
despite the team fifth place standing in the Premier League.

The
Gunners were held to a 2-2 draw by Manchester City at the Emirates
Stadium on Sunday to further hurt the Gunners chances of qualifying for
next season’s Champions League.

The Nigerian international told arsenal.com that nothing but the Champions League will be good enough for the London side.

“We
still believe that we can be in the top four, and that we can be in the
title race as much as we can, but we’ll take it step by step and see
where we end up at the end of the season, ” Iwobi told arsenal.com.

Commenting
on the point against City, Iwobi said : “It was a very tough match and
we were behind twice, so I guess we have to be satisfied with that.”
