Arsenal’s hopes of finishing in the top-4 took a massive hit as Arsenal suffered a 2-0 defeat to Leicester City. We take a look at the Twitter reactions for the game.
Arsenal’s poor away form continued to haunt the side at the King Power Stadium, as Unai Emery’s men suffered a 2-0 loss against Leicester City.
The Gunners faced Leicester in a vital Premier League fixture in their bid for the top-4, but failed to capitalize on the situation. A win would’ve handed Arsenal a huge boost for the Champions League qualification, but it now seems like their chances of qualifying for the European competition will largely depend on the results of their competitors.
Youri Tielemans opened the goalscoring from a brilliant assist by James Maddison in the second half. Jamie Vardy doubled the lead and put the game to bed as poor defending cost Arsenal the game.
With this loss, Arsenal stays at the 5th place in the league with 66 points. Manchester United now has the chance to overtake Unai Emery’s side with a win over Chelsea later tonight.

Says a lot for how shit we were under Jose and the last month, that we are behind this absolute shower of an Arsenal team. Also says a lot about the PL that we’re still in with a shot at third! Although, I accept that fourth is the main and more realistic target.

You ok, Tubs? Even with your mediocre maths, I reckon you can work out that Arsenal’s loss percentage in their last 3 games is 💯. https://t.co/8BgkCGqGFf
