Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger admits a Premiership title triumph is unlikely.

Even though the Gunners have now clawed themselves back into the Champions League places as Aston Villa falter, Wenger's men remain 10 points adrift of leaders Manchester United - who have a game in hand - and six behind third-placed Chelsea.

Wenger accepted: "Unless Manchester United collapse completely, it would be a bit pretentious at the moment to say we are in it - but you never know.

"What is high in our mind is to get as close as possible to the teams who are at the top and then if something happens, not to have any regrets."
