Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger admits he now fears for their automatic Champions League place after yesterday's shock defeat by Wigan Athletic.

Rather than being in the title hunt, Wenger is now looking over his shoulder at Spurs and Manchester City, with the hope now of simply hanging onto third place.

"My target is to win the next game, that's all we can do," said Wenger.

"Manchester City and Spurs can still catch us, so we have to win at least one of our remaining games."

Cheekily asked as to who his money was now on for the title, Wenger gave a naturally dismissive response.

"I don't mind and I don't care," said Wenger. "All I know is if we had won today then we would have been back in it."
