    Arsene Wenger has conceded that Arsenal‘s priority is to win the Premier League this season.

    Manchester United’s recent loss to Chelsea has meant that the Gunners can pile the pressure on the league leaders by reducing the difference to one point, should they win their game in hand.

    And the Frenchman has sounded a rallying cry to his charges, insisting that every league game is to be treated like a cup game.

    “It’s down to our results – that will decide the championship,” Wenger said. “Do we win our games? It just depends on us. Every game is a cup game for us.

    “The most important trophy is the Premier League because you win the league after 38 games and you win the Carling Cup after five, six games.”

    The former Monaco boss was also reluctant to rule Chelsea and Manchester City out of the title race.

    He added: “The race is tight, exciting. I don’t rule out Chelsea or Man City because everybody can drop points everywhere. If we maintain our consistency we have a very good chance.”
