Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is adamant they're not out of the title race.

Wenger insists the Gunners can still catch leaders Chelsea.

Wenger takes his side across London to face struggling QPR on Wednesday night looking for a seventh win in eight league games.

"At the moment we are nowhere near to winning the Premier League, and nowhere near close to being in the race," he said.

"But what we want is to do as well as we can without speculating on the weakness of any team. The only thing you can say is that it's very tight.

"You look in front of you, Manchester City are four points ahead of us, and you look behind you, there's plenty of people chasing us.

"That will be very, very tight and it will be down to consistency in our results and mental strength. That will certainly be needed again on Wednesday night."
