Arshavin expects top 4 finish
Arsenal midfielder Andrei Arshavin remains fully confident that his side can keep their top four place and ensure qualification for the Champions League next season, despite the high profile spending of Man City.
Russian midfielder Arshavin said: "We are heading for a very difficult start of the season. We have four very hard opponents at the beginning of it. Then the Champions League games come.
"Getting to the group stage is one of our main tasks. It won't be easy, but I hope we'll manage to do it.
"With Adebayor signing for Manchester City, we lost a very good player. But Arsenal remain one of the best clubs in the Premier League, even without him.
"There are still the same big four clubs who will challenge the title next season. The remaining European slots will be taken by Manchester City, Aston Villa, Everton or Tottenham."
