‘Arsenal can still win the title’-Arshavin

(GSM) – Andrey Arshavin believes Arsenal is still capable of winning the Premier League title after sinking Liverpool on Wednesday.

Arsenal’s title hopes were fading after the losses against Manchester United and Chelsea but Wednesday’s win over the Reds reignited their ambitions.

The 1-0 home win reduced the gap at the top to six points after leaders Chelsea lost at Everton.

Arshavin was delighted with the display and has now challenged Arsenal to win their closing twelve matches of the season.

“After these results, it looks possible,” Arshavin told his personal website. “The gap was reduced to six points.

“Of course, today’s result is good for us, but if we want to be champions we have to win all our remaining games. It’s difficult to say whether it’s possible.

“Back to the Liverpool game, I think there were nearly equal teams playing. I liked the way we played.

“We were not afraid to play, the whole team was well co-ordinated. If I can say so, all Arsenal players played the same football, that is we understood each other and combined.”

Arshavin was replaced midway through the second half of the game by Theo Walcott and the Russian international confirmed he will have a scan on a leg injury.

“It is hard to say how serious it is, I’ll have my leg scanned,” Arshavin added.

“I haven’t seen the goal because of that (injury). I was in the room under the stands with the doctors.”
