Wenger Believes Man City Win Strengthens Arsenal’s Title Hopes
Arsene Wenger’s side cemented their place as favourites for the League with a 2-1 victory over rivals Manchester City last night. You can see his desire to win.

The victory leaves Arsenal two points behind leaders Leicester, while Manuel Pellegrini’s City remain six points adrift as their indifferent form away from home continues.
City have lost five games this season and the last team to lose more than five games before Christmas and still win the title was Everton in 1986-87. We got great goals in the first half and we became shaky at 2-1. Although he said that it was too early to predict the league victor, the Frenchman added that the win has strengthened their belief of claiming the title, the Guardian reported.
“I have full confidence in this team – especially when we have all the players back fit”.
Whatever the tactic, and who made a decision to implement it, it has worked admirably this season with wins against numerous top teams (including Leicester!) and has guided us to second in the Premiership going into Christmas.
“After that the team started to push up but in the end we didn’t do it. That is football and sometimes we have to accept we can lose close games like that. But of course, it was important to try to win”, he said.
In the second half we took more risks, we created a lot of chances, we had more possession, we had lots of shots but in a match this important you can’t make mistakes. Arsenal fans and players celebrated after the final whistle as if they had taken a major step in winning their first championship since 2004. I personally think he is built on his physical attributes and commitment. “At this moment, what they’ve got is performing better than anyone”, he said.
However, he was highly critical of City skipper Yaya Toure’s performance at the Emirates and called him “selfish”.
We conceded two goals and as a defender I can’t be happy about that. We have not had such a good chance for a few years.
The Jacksonville Armada signed midfielder Pekka Lagerblom Monday, the latest move of the club’s active North American Soccer League off-season.
