Gunners boss Wenger not ready to throw in the title towel just yet

Arsene Wenger

ARSENE Wenger still believes his miss-firing Gunners can still win the Premier League title despite yesterday's 2-1 defeat at Chelsea.

Arsenal now sit six points off top spot following 'Grand Slam Sunday' and with no win in their last five league games things don't look good.

Manchester United increased their advantage at the summit with a 3-0 win over Liverpool, before the Gunners let a lead slip in a 2-1 defeat at Stamford Bridge that saw the Blues also go a point above them in the table.

But despite this latest setback, the Arsenal boss isn't throwing in the towel just yet.

"We will fight until the end and we are not worried about the future but are disappointed now obviously," Wenger told Sky Sports.

"Today we were unlucky and I thought we played well. We were 1-0 up and were unlucky with their first goal which I thought was really offside.

"(Nicolas) Anelka came on for them, and they decided to play long ball, which put us under a lot of pressure and that was the only way they could trouble us. In the end we lost the game.

"It is disappointing because we gave everything but now the priority has to be the next game."
