Piers Morgan tips Arsenal for Premier League title if they crash in Champions League group
ARSENAL fan Piers Morgan admits he would rather Arsene Wenger's side finished bottom of their Champions League group to avoid entering the Europa League.
Piers Morgan hopes Arsenal avoid Europa League this season
The Gunners have lost their two opening outings inn Group F, 2-1 away at Dynamo Zargreb and 3-2 to Olympiakos at the Emirates Stadium.
And Morgan, who is an Arsenal shareholder, believes his side could mount a serious Premier League title challenge without the added fixtures in Europe.
“The sad reality is that this Champions League campaign is all but over,” said Morgan as he co-hosted Drivetime with Adrian Durham.
“I think we will be beaten by Bayern Munich at least once, probably twice in the space of a couple of weeks, and that will be it.
“It will be the worst Champions League exit for a number of years for Arsenal and confirms my view that things are not as rosy as the Wenger-brigade would like to have it.

“But there is the point, that many Arsenal fans have found out, that we don’t want to finish third and end up in the Europa, a second tier competition.
“Actually, if we are out of that, we might have a chance of winning the Premier League.”
