Wenger feels his team could have won

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has insisted that his side had enough chances through out the game to make the breakthrough against Manchester United in last night's Premier League encounter at the Emirates.

The Gunners failed to utilize a number of chances to score the winning goal, with French striker Olivier Giroud having the best opportunity to put them ahead.

While speaking to BBC Sport after the no score draw, the Frenchman said:"Overall, we could have won it. It was a game of few chances. Our defensive focus was extreme as we conceded so many goals on Saturday. In the end either side could have won 1-0.

"Manchester United are a good team, so when you go forward they can catch you. It is important to recover physically and prepare for the next game. We want to stay in the FA Cup. The title race is absolutely open for many teams."

Arsenal are currently second in the Premier League standings, a point adrift of leaders Chelsea.
