What? The football we've been playing recently would be good enough for top 4 across an entire season.
The squad cant play at a title challenging level because it simply isn't good enough. Not sure what point you tried to make there.
Your own stats earlier showed around Top 6 since December. Can forget the circumstances against Wolves, but the loss at Villa showed Top 6 at best, not Top 4. If you want to argue that this squad is a level of Top 6-8 then stick with that for overall consistency.
My view is our squad quality is Top 6-8, *including* some players Arteta has decided to marginalise with loans and to fringes, while our table position is below that, although one can argue since December our form has been Top 6-8 form, but that won’t help to get there when combining before and after December together. Also have to factor in we’ve exited FA Cup very early.
