Wenger backs his Gunners

Wenger backs his Gunners

17 December 2008 - 14:04

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger still believes that his side are in with a chance of winning the Premiership title, despite yet another miserable result against Middlesbrough in the Premiership last weekend.

  • Chelsea to move for former Arsenal goalkeeper?
  • Former Chelsea boss to replace Erik ten Hag at Man Utd?

  • Wenger feels that his side are not far off from reaching their full potential, and could still challenge for honours: "I believe this team is not far off and can get there as much as the team in 2004.



    "That is the question we want to answer in the next month, to not only show that we have potential, but that we can respond to the expectation level of our fans.



    "At the moment, we swim a bit against the stream because we do not feel that (outside) around the team has the same belief as we do inside.



    "We can understand that and take in on board because we lost some games which we should not have lost.



    "But we have a few months in front of us now to show we were right to believe in our strengths and that we can be compared to the teams of such a quality in 2004 and maybe even aim to be stronger.''
