We have spent much of this season wondering, like many others, whether Arsenal were about to bottle it. But after a brilliant week for Mikel Arteta's side, are they now on the brink of a historic achievement?

They're in the box seat for the Premier League title and can move one step closer if they beat West Ham on Sunday and in midweek reached their first Champions League final in 20 years.

On today’s Libero Jack Pitt-Brooke, Miguel Delaney and John Brewin look at their turnaround and ask what caused it. Was it the fire, Declan Rice’s rousing speech, or simply having players back? Or did they, like Manchester City in 2012, have to lose the title in order to win it?

With PSG also reaching the showpiece fixture in Budapest, it looks like being the best final in years, with Europe’s two best teams meeting. Why does that happen so rarely? And what do these two finalists tell us about the modern game?
