Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas believes that Arsenal will still manage to finish in the Premier League's top four despite a wobble.

The Gunners were held to a 1-1 home draw by Crystal Palace at the weekend and now sit in fourth spot, just four points ahead of fifth placed Manchester United, with five games left for the two teams to play.




Despite Arsenal's title challenge having gone up in smoke, leaving the Gunners to try to stop the bleeding by finishing in the top four, Fabregas is sure Arsene Wenger's men can book Champions League football.

He said on Sky Sports Monday Night Football: "Arsenal normally always end up finishing the season very strong physically.
 


"So I have no doubt they will be there if they play well", the former Arsenal midfielder added.
