David Seaman has claimed that it would be more important for Arsenal secure a return to the Champions League than it would for Tottenham, with us having played out the current campaign without any European football whatsoever.
The Gunners are currently on course for their first CL challenge in five years, with a four-point cushion over Spurs in the race for the top-four, but that lead could be cut to one should our noisy neighbours secure the win tomorrow.
Seaman insists that it will be our focus not to lose, before explaining why it would be so important for us to qualify for the CL.
"The main focus is not to get beat" 😤

Do you agree that is more important to us at present or would it be just as important for their present and future as it would ours?

Big Dave and I share similarities we are both avid anglers 🎣😝 yeah we need CL and need qualification sewn up by tomorrow night 💪
It’s more important for spurs because of their massive stadium debts and to keep hold of Kane and their manager Conté.
I’m glad the need bit was in inverted commas. They need it as do we. CL football brings in the best players and lots of footie to watch in the winter months and beyond. Playing teams from places you’ve actually heard of rather than some European outpost.
Come on Arsenal
Show us what you can do!!

You make the Europa and Conference Leagues sound like footballs equivalent of expeditions to some long forgotten outposts…😂
