Despite Arsenal suffering a humiliating defeat to Rennes, Merson believes United will be held to a draw by the Gunners this weekend.
Wow, this is a big game. Again, both teams will be wanting to get into the top four, but they will also want a buffer for the other European places. I see nothing but goals in this football match – both teams turning up, having a go. Arsenal look like they are playing with a real bit of confidence, they were unlucky against Tottenham and probably should have won the game.
And Man Utd – what a result against PSG. It was unreal – as simple as that. I thought they did well and there’s a saying that if you can stay in the game, you never know what can happen. I thought the manager was fortunate because he got it horribly, horribly wrong in the first 20 minutes with Eric Bailly playing at right-back. They’re very fortunate that they weren’t out of the tie before he made the substitutions. It was a phenomenal football result and with the players they had, who all turned up – bar Bailly, who had an absolute shocker.
I can’t say it will decide fourth place with Chelsea there. It’s in Chelsea’s hands really but I think whoever lost the game would be in trouble so it’s a massive game. I think both teams will have a go at each other and there will be goals.
