Former Arsenal star Paul Merson in a recent statement said seven clubs in the English Premier League are competing for three spots in the Uefa Champions League.

Merson claimed the Gunners and EPL champions Manchester City will finish in the top two.

There are reports that England is likely to have five teams in the Champions League next season, and Merson believes many clubs will be fighting for the spots.

He said on Sky Sports: “You take away Arsenal and Man City, who will finish in the top two this season, then there are seven sides competing for three remaining Champions League places – so it is going to come down to consistency.

“All these teams at the moment can beat each other on their day, we have seen that already this season, and it is whoever stays consistent.

“Man Utd are in the race for the top five.”
