Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta admits that his team has a good chance to win the Premier League.

The Gunners battered Chelsea in midweek to go top, but Manchester City also won at Brighton on Thursday.

On the title race, Arteta stated: That we are there. We have to look at ourselves and perform the best possible way and win our matches and wait to see what happens.

That's what we discussed. It sounds a bit repetitive, but that's what we have to do."

On it being a two-horse race, he added: I don't think so. This league is tremendously demanding and there can be still a lot of turns. We know what we have to do to win this league."

On the team's future, he concluded: We are fully focused on this one because there's still a lot at stake and we want to get the job done.

We know it's a very young team with a very bright future and still a lot of room for improvement. We will try to keep developing it."
