ARSENAL are likelier to beat Manchester United to the top four, according to Liverpool legend Mark Lawrenson.
The BBC analysist believes United could miss out on the Champions League spots because of their “dressing room issues”.
That is why the footballer-turned-pundit expects the Gunners to return to Europe’s top tier as they are a “really, really well run club”.
The 64-year-old is also impressed with Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta‘s work and is confident the north Londoners can reach even greater heights under him.
Lawrenson said: “We talk about Manchester United and their dressing room [issues].
“It looks like Arsenal have got a good dressing room. They’ve signed one or two decent players defensively as well. We know about all the young lads that they’ve got.
“Of course, when you first come in the team you play with absolutely no fear whatsoever.
“You don’t think about what you’re doing, you just do it. It looks like it’s a really, really well run club.

“I’m a fan of Arteta – I like what he’s trying to do. It might well be that he needs another transfer window. I can only see them getting better definitely.”
United are currently fifth in the Premier League table with only one point separating them from fourth-placed West Ham.
Arsenal, on the other hand, are sixth with two points away from the top four and three games in hand.
