Arsenal have grown used to making 4th place in the Premier League their trophy every season but they now are set to lose that accolade to Everton this season.
The Toffees wiped Arsenal aside at Goodison Park with a rampant 3-0 win. They appear to have the playing personnel as well as a manager in Roberto Martinez who has instilled a belief in the side arguably David Moyes never could. If Everton win all their games from now until the end of the season Arsenal won't be able to overtake them.
Arsene Wenger will be worried how his team have collapsed whenever they have faced top six opposition this season and Arsenal have been living a charmed life in recent seasons and their luck now appears to be up.
1. Everton are brimming with confidence and are more than capable of winning their remaining games. They have a great balance to their side and their star players are delivering against the top teams.
You can look again now, Arsenal fans. Full-time. Everton players are digging out their passports #ChampionsLeague — FootballFanCast.com (@FootballFanCast) April 6, 2014
2. Arsenal squad is not strong enough and injuries to key players will cost them dearly. They don't have enough of their first team players fit at the same time.

3. A series of heavy away defeats to Everton, Liverpool and Man City would have really taken their mental toll on the team and they have the FA Cup to deal with as well as facing a difficult Premier League run in.
