Wenger - We can cope with heavy schedule

Arsenal play five times in the space of 14 days, starting with a trip to Anfield to play fourth-place Liverpool on Saturday.

Wenger's team enter a busy period two points clear at the top of the Premier League and the Frenchman believes his team can maintain its momentum.

"Mentally we are prepared and we have shown a great response throughout the season when we had difficulties"

"When you're in a good position to fight for something of course the closer you get to the end the more every game becomes vital," Wenger said. "In a cup game it's decisive but in the Premiership now every point is important so it's a massive month for us.

"We did fight very hard until now to be in this position so let's just enjoy it and give our best. I'm sure we will.

"Mentally we are prepared and we have shown a great response throughout the season when we had difficulties. Physically we are prepared as well.

"It depends how many injuries we have because we need to rotate and it's important that we have as many players available as we can. Big injuries can of course question the end of the season."
