As at today`s results, MU takes the 6th position after the 35 games with 65 points in Premier League, while Arsenal has the 5th place and 66 points. MU won the EFL Cup and entered the UEFA Europe League final to play with Ajax. Whereas Arsenal FC on 27th of May will be facing Chelsea in England Cup Final.

As you can see, both clubs have achievements in this season, however, MU with a $100-million Pogba and Zlatan had to take the higher position in EPL. Arsenal latest transfer window was not very productive (as usual), we all see the Arsenal results, so they have to amplify their squad.

Now it is your turn to choose who is better. Take a look at all the criteria once again. Then write your winner and the thoughts that came to you while reading this analysis. But be tolerant! Best wishes!
