Wenger - It could go down to the wire

Arsene Wenger believes the title race could go down to the last game of the season.

After a tough run of fixtures in February, Arsenal ended the month with a comprehensive 4-1 win over Sunderland on Saturday to keep them just one point behind leaders Chelsea.

The Gunners face another set of challenging games in March and Wenger says the most consistent team will be champions.

"Let's go for the 11 games with a real desire to do well in every single game"

"It looks like the last game could be decisive," he told Arsenal Player. "Nobody knows. What is for sure, the most consistent team from now on will do it.

"Everybody has big games, everybody has difficult games, the Premier League is difficult for everybody so let's just focus on our performances.

"We've just come off of a little bit of a difficult run because we lost at Liverpool, we played a draw against Man United and we are still only one point behind Chelsea so overall that is a great encouragement.

"Let's go for the 11 games with a real desire to do well in every single game - then you have a good chance."
