Arsenal’s http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Laurent-Koscielny-c21742 believes that it is very important for Arsenal to finish in the third spot at the end of the season.
At the moment, the North London club are sitting in the third spot in the league, but with Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle hot on their trails, the team can’t take any risks, as a small slip up could also result in the team missing out on the top four altogether.
However, Koscielny feels that his team need to win their last game and secure a top three finish, since it is the least the team can do, based on how they played this season.
The French international, when talking about his team and how they should finish the season is reported to have said: "Every player wants to be in third place; it is very important for the squad, the club, for everything," \
“We must do it on the pitch to make sure we are in third place after Sunday's game.”
He then insisted that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429 have always qualified for the Champions League and this is why the team can’t go on and ruin the reputation that they have developed over the last couple of years.
"Since Arsene Wenger was here, Arsenal have [almost] always qualified for the Champions League, so I don't want this to be the first team not to qualify."
Arsenal are set to take on West Brom on the last day of the season, in a game where both the teams will be looking to end their season on a high. However, at the same time, Tottenham will be playing against Fulham, who have played some brilliant football
this season and won’t be easy to push around. Lastly Newcastle United will take on http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 in the league, they are going to give Newcastle one really hard competitive match.
However, if Arsenal win their last game of the season, then they won’t have any problems finishing third, given the point gap between them and their closest rivals, who are looking to claim the third spot for themselves.
