Arsene Wenger says there is no chance that Arsenal will grow complacent after their stunning start to the season.
The Gunners are four points clear after 14 games but face in-form Everton at Emirates Stadium on Sunday.
Wenger admires the job Roberto Martinez has done since taking over at the Toffeemen, and says his side will have to be at the best to gain a positive result.
"We have just put a few results together that will make us more ambitious, but as well conscious that in every single game you need to put a top-level performance in"
“He has done remarkably well because they have had some difficult games,” the manager said at a press conference after visiting the Teenage Cancer Trust unit ahead of the Club’s charity matchday. “They have played many of the big teams in the league and overall are in a very strong position.
“They have just come out of a win against Manchester United. We are lucky this season a little bit, because there is always a big warning before we play against these teams when they have exceptional results. That keeps us on our toes. We know it is a big game.
“I don't think there is a danger [of becoming complacent] because we are hungry, we want to win, and we have just put a few results together that will make us more ambitious, but as well conscious that in every single game you need to put a top-level performance in.
“It is a continuity as well because since the beginning of 2013 we have been quite consistent in our results, but now we have a big week in front of us starting with Everton and we have to show we have the hunger and the quality to do it.”
