Arsene Wenger Believes United Can Be Caught

Arsene Wenger believes that Arsenal can still catch Manchester United at the top of the Premiere League.

The Gunners cut United's lead to just seven points at the weekend with a 1-3 win away at Blackpool to move onto sixty two points - United are just ahead on sixty nine.

Arsenal still have a game in hand over the league leaders and Wenger is confident that United can be caught.

Talking to The Sun Wenger said: "Only three points could help us to keep a chance here.

"We have promised to give everything for the rest of the season and seven games is a long time.

"People forget we are on a long unbeaten league run now, even if we haven't won recently. So it was important to get the win again and we have to go from game to game now."

On Saturday there were goals from Abou Diaby, Emmanuel Eboue and Robin van Persie to cruise to a 3-1 win, Blackpool remain just a single place above the drop zone.

But United were also in action over the weekend and they enjoyed a 2-0 win over Fulham.
