"I was ever really assured we would not conscionable propulsion done but do really good against them," Sherelle told BBC Sport.

"We'd scored nan goals successful nan first limb truthful each we really had to do was support them out. It meant it was a slower crippled and not arsenic exciting, but that didn't matter.

"It's breathtaking to beryllium successful nan semi-finals but location is still activity to do.

"Growing up arsenic an Arsenal fan, it was ever erstwhile we fell astatine nan past hurdle to declare these bigger cups that deed maine hardest.

"We had a fewer years aft that erstwhile we struggled a spot and I couldn't woody pinch what I was seeing because I was calved successful nan 1990s and my era was nan clip of Thierry Henry, Dennis Bergkamp and Robert Pires.

"I was successful superior schoolhouse for nan 'Invincibles' play erstwhile you could not really reason pinch really astonishing Arsenal were.

"I'd beryllium playing shot successful nan playground and opportunity I wanted Henry's spot.

"I americium very happy pinch wherever we are astatine nan moment, and I tin spot large things connected nan horizon. If we do triumph nan Champions League, it could beryllium nan commencement of thing very special, but if we don't past this squad is not going away.

Premier League predictions

Saturday, 19 April

  • Gtech Community Stadium, 15:00 BST

Brighton person had a spot of a dip successful shape and started conceding a fewer goals, truthful their hopes of breaking into nan apical 5 are astir apt gone now.

Even so, nan 10th-placed Seagulls are 1 of those teams wherever conscionable erstwhile you deliberation astir penning them off, they will travel up pinch a capacity and wallop someone.

I don't expect that to hap connected Saturday, however. Brentford are only 1 spot beneath them successful nan array and though they are not connected a awesome tally either, nan Bees are ever difficult to beat.

The much I deliberation astir it, nan much it smells of a draw. I americium beautiful judge nan BBC readers are going to spell for a tie too, truthful we each work together connected this one.

Sutton's prediction: 1-1

Sherelle's prediction: It was annoying to tie pinch Brentford past week but they are ever a tricky squad to play against. In regards to this crippled I person a emotion it mightiness move retired to beryllium a spot of a snore-fest because they will cancel each different out. 1-1

I was astatine St James' Park connected Wednesday and Newcastle were superb successful their 5-0 triumph complete Crystal Palace, particularly connected nan break.

The Eagles should really person levelled aft going 1-0 down, but Eberechi Eze made a messiness of his punishment and nan crippled was complete by half-time.

It has been a bad week for Palace, who besides conceded 5 goals against Manchester City connected Saturday, and really tin I backmost them aft they person shipped 10 goals successful 2 games?

I americium not precisely convinced by Bournemouth either, though. They ended a mediocre tally by beating Fulham connected Monday but they person looked a small tired of late, and don't person arsenic overmuch firepower arsenic Newcastle aliases Manchester City.

My interest astir Palace is really passive they looked against nan Magpies. They request a consequence to that mediocre performance, and I deliberation we mightiness get 1 from them astatine Selhurst Park. Surely Eze can't play arsenic severely again.

Sutton's prediction: 1-1

Sherelle's prediction: I've sewage a friend who is simply a Palace instrumentality truthful I was enjoying their bully run, good until this week anyhow. Bournemouth won astatine Selhurst Park past play but I americium going for Palace to bounce backmost here. 2-1

I americium astatine this crippled for Radio 5 Live and americium looking guardant to it. It is truthful difficult to call, because of wherever some teams are at.

Everton will activity hard, of course, but they are besides very tin of winning this if they are arsenic 'in your face' arsenic they tin be, and upset City's rhythm.

If Pep Guardiola's broadside play for illustration they did against Nottingham Forest a fewer weeks ago, and don't really get going, past they are going to get turned over.

On nan different hand, City really caught occurrence aft almost going 3-0 down against Palace past week. If they play for illustration that, they will triumph - but you are ne'er rather judge what you are going to get from them successful each half astatine nan moment, fto unsocial crippled to game.

So, it is difficult to cognize really nan crippled will cookware out. Everton will not beryllium overly expansive aliases bothered astir possession and will prime their moments erstwhile they propulsion Abdoulaye Doucoure forward.

They will beryllium nonstop and Beto will tally successful behind, and I decidedly spot them scoring, but I americium still going pinch City to separator this, somehow. They person to, really, because they are nether unit to make nan apical five.

I held nan grounds for nan fastest extremity scored astatine Goodison successful its 132-year history until Doucoure scored aft 10.18 seconds against Leicester successful February, beating my effort for Blackburn aft 12.94 seconds successful 1995.

That's still nan fastest extremity scored location by an distant player, though, truthful hopefully no-one manages a quicker 1 earlier nan extremity of nan play - particularly erstwhile I americium location to talk astir it arsenic co-commentator.

Sutton's prediction: 1-2

Sherelle's prediction: Everton are rather annoying successful that they are difficult to break down. I really deliberation they will people first, but City are connected a comparatively bully tally and they person shown precocious they tin respond if they spell behind. 1-3

  • London Stadium, 15:00 BST

Speaking of records, already-relegated Southampton are still trying to debar taking 1 distant from Robbie Savage's Derby for nan lowest Premier League points tally.

They request a constituent from their last six games to make it to 11 points and adjacent nan Rams' full from 2007-08, but they are not going to get it here.

West Ham are not successful immoderate threat of going down but they will still surely not want to decorativeness 17th, which is wherever they are correct now.

They were decent against Liverpool past clip out, and still lost, but they won't person to play arsenic good arsenic they did astatine Anfield to return 3 points this time.

Hammers leader Graham Potter could really do pinch a win, because their fans will want to decorativeness a forgettable play pinch a spot of optimism, and they should person thing to grin astir connected Saturday.

As for nan loyal and long-suffering Southampton fans, good I've said earlier really miserable this play has been for them. I deliberation I'd person switched to supporting Bournemouth, Brighton aliases moreover Portsmouth by now.

Being serious, I've sewage a batch of admiration for nan travelling fans that person stuck pinch them done this, and I conjecture nan consolation present is that they won't person a agelong travel backmost from London to nan southbound coast.

Sutton's prediction: 2-0

Sherelle's prediction: This mightiness beryllium different snooze-fest, because some teams person thing to play for. 0-0

Newcastle are nan Premier League's momentum monsters, particularly since winning nan Carabao Cup, but their fantabulous shape goes backmost further than that.

Seventh-placed Aston Villa are besides successful awesome shape, connected a tally of 4 successive convention wins, and though they mislaid nan necktie overall, they were sensational successful nan 2nd limb of their Champions League quarter-final against Paris St-Germain.

Villa's comeback connected nan night, to triumph 3-2 aft falling 2-0 down, took maine by astonishment but they really showed what they are made of. I deliberation PSG will triumph this season's Champions League, but Villa pushed them each nan way.

This is going to beryllium a cracking game, and besides a feisty 1 pinch what is astatine liking successful nan top-five race. Who aliases what decides it mightiness travel down to good margins, and who makes nan astir of their chances, because some teams are going to get opportunities.

Villa will score, whoever they play up top, though possibly they should return Marco Asensio disconnected penalties. He missed 2 spot-kicks past play against Southampton aft I told everyone to watch retired for him connected nan Fantasy 606 pod, which sums up my FPL play and predicting expertise successful 1 fell swoop.

You could make an statement for some teams here, but I americium going pinch Newcastle, because of really bully they were erstwhile I watched them astatine St James' Park connected Wednesday to hit Palace 5-0.

Harvey Barnes was electric, conscionable unbelievably bully down nan left, and nan aforesaid goes for Jacob Murphy connected nan different flank - his opening extremity was perfectly amazing, because who shoots from there?

With those 2 playing nan measurement they are, Newcastle are going to support connected winning.

Sutton's prediction: 1-2

Sherelle's prediction: Villa put successful a really large agelong against PSG and Newcastle are successful specified astonishing form. There will beryllium goals successful this one, and I fancy Newcastle to separator it. 2-3

Sunday, 20 April

  • Craven Cottage, 14:00 BST

There is thing not correct astatine Chelsea.

They drew astatine location to Ipswich past week, for example. I laughed erstwhile I saw my guest, Yizzy, had put nan Tractor Boys down to get a constituent but that ended up being nan consequence that killed me.

From what leader Enzo Maresca has said since then, by asking nan fans to spot him and saying nan players are affected by nan crowd, everyone seems to beryllium emotion nan pressure.

He was questioning nan fans, but besides his players' temperament. If you deliberation astir really galore millions person been spent connected that squad, past if they don't person nan spot of characteristic to play nan measurement their head wants, past eden thief them successful nan agelong run.

This is astir apt going to beryllium different people tie but I look to get Fulham incorrect immoderate I say.

They deserved to get thing from their conclusion astatine Bournemouth connected Monday, and I americium going pinch them to get a repetition of their triumph astatine Stamford Bridge successful December.

Sutton's prediction: 2-1

Sherelle's prediction: Chelsea should triumph this 1 but they are truthful inconsistent. I find it fascinating, to beryllium honest, because they person sewage truthful galore bully players. 1-0

Arsenal will beryllium connected specified a precocious aft their Champions League triumph complete Real Madrid.

I americium covering this crippled and while Arteta will astir apt remainder a fewer players and freshen things up, nan Gunners will still person excessively overmuch nous for Ipswich.

It astir apt summed up Ipswich's play that they went 2-0 up against Chelsea past clip retired and could not spot retired nan win, but they merit in installments for giving it a bully go.

Ipswich were beautiful stubborn erstwhile they mislaid 1-0 astatine Emirates Stadium successful December and I americium expecting them to show immoderate resilience this clip too, moreover if they extremity up pinch nan aforesaid result.

Sutton's prediction: 0-2

Sherelle's prediction: We are astir apt going to remainder players and my gut emotion is we mightiness really tie this - I americium not going to opportunity that though! 0-1

Sherelle connected Arsenal's Premier League campaign: It's been rather humbling for america to operation beating Real pinch drafting pinch Everton and Brentford successful nan past mates of weeks, but I get why we person rested players successful those games to prioritise that tie.

This play has been really difficult successful nan Premier League full-stop though, partially because of nan injuries we person had. It is frustrating because location is truthful overmuch that is truthful bully astir america astatine nan moment. Our defence, for illustration is nan champion successful nan Premier League. There is thing missing, though, and possibly it is very circumstantial for illustration a master striker, aliases nan mentality you request to get complete nan line.

Wolves person already beaten Manchester United erstwhile this play and, connected existent form, they are favourites this clip too.

Vitor Pereira's broadside are flying pinch 4 consecutive wins, and we cognize really inconsistent United are.

I americium going to springiness Bruno Fernandes a goal, because he has been 1 of nan fewer United players who tin clasp their caput up precocious pinch their performances this season, but astatine nan infinitesimal Wolves look well-balanced, and they are nan amended team.

United's full run is hanging connected what happens successful nan Europa League necktie against Lyon connected Thursday but, triumph aliases suffer there, I don't deliberation what happens location changes thing astir their atrocious Premier League form.

I americium sorry to opportunity this but their fans are going to person different miserable day astatine Old Trafford, wherever they person already mislaid much convention games (seven) than they person won (six) this season.

Sutton's prediction: 1-3

Sherelle's prediction: I still don't get why United are having specified a bad time. They should beryllium doing overmuch amended pinch nan players they person got, but they are very up and down. Wolves will beryllium assured of beating them again. 0-1

  • King Power Stadium, 16:30 BST

Leicester ended their agelong losing tally pinch a tie astatine Brighton past weekend, but I'm acrophobic different conclusion is connected its measurement for nan Foxes here.

Liverpool were arsenic limp arsenic thing against West Ham past clip out, but they still sewage complete nan line. They could beryllium moreover limper against Leicester, and they will still triumph to move moreover person to nan title.

Sutton's prediction: 0-3

Sherelle's prediction: This should beryllium easy for Liverpool and they are astir apt going to triumph but, from an Arsenal perspective, I'd emotion this to beryllium a draw. 2-2

Monday, 21 April

  • Tottenham Stadium, 20:00 BST

If Spurs get past Eintracht Frankfurt successful nan Europa League connected Thursday, past their stadium will beryllium perfectly buzzing pinch alleviation and jubilation connected Monday.

On nan different hand, if Tottenham suffer successful Germany, past nan ambiance could get rather nasty and that could impact their players.

Nottingham Forest are nan counter-attack kings and they person nan devices to get different triumph for illustration nan 1 they sewage complete Spurs astatine nan City Ground successful December, wherever they had 30% of possession but won 1-0.

Forest person deed a spot of a blip of late, though, and they don't look to beryllium rather nan aforesaid unit they were a fewer weeks ago.

They are hopeless for a triumph to get their top-five bid backmost connected way and Nuno Espirito Santo's would emotion to get it connected his return to Tottenham, wherever he did not past agelong arsenic manager, but a tie feels much apt to me.

Sutton's prediction: 1-1

Sherelle's prediction: Tottenham tin beryllium a really bully squad but location are immoderate sides that person a winning mentality, and Spurs conscionable don't. 0-0

How did Sutton do past week?

Chris sewage 5 correct results, pinch nary nonstop scores, from nan 10 games successful week 32, giving him 50 points.

Using nan astir celebrated scoreline from their predictions for each game, nan BBC readers sewage 4 correct results pinch nary nonstop scores, for a full of 40 points.

But nan play triumph went to Chris's guest, rapper Yizzy. He was correct erstwhile he backed Ipswich to get a astonishment constituent astatine Chelsea and that proved important successful his victory.

His six correct results and nary nonstop scores near him pinch 60 points and, pinch six rounds of fixtures near to play, nan guests are now supra Chris successful nan predictions convention array pinch nan astir outright wins.

"This play is each astir points, not wins," Sutton said. "I person won nan past 2 seasons, and I wanted to do it otherwise this time, and show much consistency."

There was besides a rearranged crippled this week, Newcastle's 5-0 triumph complete Crystal Palace connected Wednesday, which was meant to return spot successful week 29.

Sutton picked up 10 much points aft going for a 2-1 Newcastle win, leaving him pinch a full of 80 points that week.

That intends he ties pinch his guest, Divorce vocalist Felix, who went for a Palace win, but nan play triumph stays pinch nan BBC readers. They went for a 3-1 location victory, meaning they extremity up pinch 90 points.
