Arsenal hero Martin Keown is convinced the team is displaying top four potential after victory over West Ham.
Second-half goals from Gabriel Martinelli and substitute Emile Smith Rowe saw Mikel Arteta's side replace David Moyes' men in the final Champions League position.
Keown said, "I think in this transition period with a young manager [Arteta], young director of football [Edu], Saka and Smith Rowe have been outstanding.
"They still need to score more goals, it's been a difficult period but they are in the top four. Why can't Arsenal make it?
"I do feel the quality is there and the belief is there. I'd like to see Smith Rowe come into the team again because when he comes on look at the message he sends.
"It's important to keep feet on the ground because this is one win. They go to Leeds next and they need to get a result. People can see the quality there as they are rebuilding. They are unified and they need to build from there.
"There has to be a platform for those front three to go and do what they do. [Alexandre] Lacazette was good tonight, really professional given his best mate in the team was dropped."
