ARTETA NOT GIVING UP ON PREMIER LEAGUE CHASE!

Arsenal head coach Mikel Arteta has vowed that he and his team will not be easily giving up on the English Premier League title race following their 1-0 defeat at home against West Ham United this previous weekend.

Arsenal missed out on a chance to close down the gap between themselves and Liverpool to 8 points and they now trail them with 11 points.

When asked about the English Premier League title chase this is what Mikel Arteta said as reported by BBC Sport:

"Over my dead body. If not I will go home. Mathematically it is possible. Three days ago we could close a gap and you are like 'you are one and a half games away'.

"The difficulty is higher than three days ago but if you are going to win the Premier League you have to do something special.

"If you are going to win the Premier League with the circumstances we have you will probably have to do something that nobody else has done in the history of the Premier League."

"The previous 15 games we had won 10 and drawn five - exactly the same as Liverpool with exactly the same goal difference.

"So we have been extremely consistent over the past three months considering everything we have been through.

"We have generated that momentum and it was that weekend where we have to go again but we got a defeat. On top of that they [Liverpool] win.

"When you are trying to build that momentum, and we put so much into it with the circumstances that we have, it was a really hard one to take."
