Former Arsenal striker Olivier Giroud has tipped them to make a return to the top four at the end of this season.
The Frenchman was at the Emirates between 2012 and 2018 and he was one player Arsenal fans loved watching.
He switched to city rivals, Chelsea, in 2018 after the Gunners signed Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
After a successful stint there, he won the Serie A with AC Milan after joining them last season.
As he achieves success as a player, Arsenal has struggled in the last few seasons and they haven’t played in the Champions League since he left.
However, they are an improved outfit in this campaign and they have set the pace in the title race so far.
Giroud has been impressed, and he has tipped them to make a return to the Champions League.
He said, as quoted by Football London:
“I’ve also been watching my Gooners. I think it’s going to be another interesting year for them.”
Asked if they can make the top four, he added: “Yes, definitely. I hope so.”
Just Arsenal Opinion
We have had a solid start to this season and we have a quality squad to execute the campaign.
Giroud has been in this position several times in his career as a professional player and his opinion is as valuable as many of the so-called pundits.

We love you and we will not forget you Olivier
Can we bring him back already?
I remember many on here saying”We’ll never win anything with Giroud leading the line”. Even Henry made that lame claim as well.
Meanwhile, Olivier has gone on to win the CL, EL and Serie A Champion. Ooooops !
I never understood the over the Top obsession against Giroud from our fans during his time here.
Blamed him for everything and anything. Xhaka is the other player that people just blame for everything.
Hmmm slightly upbeat headline?
He was asked “CAN Arsenal make top 4?” and of course the answer is yes – it’s true of any club at the moment, anyone can make top 4.
That’s a long way from “tipping” us to make top 4.
It’s so clear that so many things is wrong with the Arsenal team. Aubameyang who we blame for almost everything is in Chelsea now and probably win a trophy or possibly an European trophy for them, so many negative and vile fans here we will see how this season unfolds. Some fans are clamoring for the sale of Smith Rowe,Saka and Partey only for them to go to other clubs and be successful.
