Arsene Wenger talks title race

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has spoken about this year’s title race which is currently being fought out between his side, Manchester City and Chelsea, and the Frenchman believes it is such an unpredictable race.

The Gunners are currently leading the pack by two points after Jose Mourinho’s heroics at the Etihad Stadium on Monday night which saw The Blues end City’s 100% home record.

City and Chelsea are both sitting two points behind Wenger’s men, but they are both aware of Arsenal’s tough run coming up, and speaking to the club’s official website, Wenger admitted that this season is so unpredictable.

“It [the title race] is never as simple as everyone predicts it,” Wenger told Arsenal Player. “I said a long time ago that nobody will be absolutely above [the others]. It will be down to consistency.

“Chelsea looked always dangerous and Man City looked for me a bit jaded,” he went on. “They were not as fluent or as strong physically as they were at Tottenham but it could have gone to 1-1, it could have gone 2-0 for Chelsea.
 
“At the end of the day, they [Chelsea] had 65 per cent possession with 25 shots on goal so sometimes that can be a 1-1 [draw], but I must say Chelsea had opportunities for the 2-0 [win].”
 
This weekend sees The Gunners travel to Anfield to face fourth-placed Liverpool, whilst City travel to strugglers Norwich City and Chelsea host Newcastle United.
