Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger insists that his side are ready for the title-fight and are raring to go ahead of a crucial period which sees them face some of the toughest teams in the Premier League.
Over the next month or so, Arsenal will be going up against; Liverpool, Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea, Everton and Tottenham, whilst also facing European champions Bayern Munich in the Champions League.
The tough month or so will really outline whether or not Wenger’s side are genuine title-contenders, but speaking ahead of his side’s trip to Anfield, he seems adamant that his side are ready for the fight and the serious challenges ahead.
“We want to convince people that we have the quality,” said Wenger, whose Arsenal team also face Manchester United in the league next week, followed by an FA Cup clash at home to Liverpool and the first leg of their UEFA Champions League tie against Bayern Munich.
“When you’re in a good position to fight for something then the closer you get to the end, the more vital each game becomes. We have fought very hard to be in this position so let’s enjoy it and give it our best.
“It is a good moment for us to win a big game because we have a tough month.
“At the moment we are on a good run and the best way to continue that is to keep the confidence level high and stay in a strong position in the Premier League.”
“There is no invincible team because there are so many quality teams in the Premier League.
“It shows how close you must be to your best in every game in order to win the title. We have a policy to just take care of the next game because the confidence of the players is so important.”
