Arsenal’s FA Cup defeat to Manchester United in early January met with tremendous frustration, mainly by boss Mikel Arteta as he searches for silverware to validate his allegations of progress in the Emirates.
The only real positive was the fact that it created space in the list of busy so that the Gunners could attack their remaining goals – the Premier League and the Champions League.
Arsenal’s form in the domestic since the defeat at United was good until recently with a home defeat at West Ham, followed by a miserable draw at Nottingham Forest.
They have won both Champions League games, however, and go to the two 16 -foot bikes against the PSV Eindhoven with a confident.
Hope is that Arsenal can go beyond the Dutch side and then welcome behind them such as Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli for the challenges that come in the final stages.
Arteta men seem to face PSV at a good time with the hosts hopelessly out of the form.
Bar the win over Juventus at Philips Stadion that pushed them at this stage, Peter Bosz’s side failed to win any of their five most recent games.
This included a draw at home with Utrecht in Eredivisie and the league and cup defeats at Go Ahead Eagles.
The PSV is eight points behind the leaders of Eredivisie Ajax, who face a blockbuster title on March 30.
The best goals since February. #Psvxpuma
