Arsenal defender Saliba: We can now handle title pressure

Arsenal defender William Saliba is adamant their title bid is alive after returning to the top of the Premier League table.

Victory at Wolves saw Arsenal overtake Manchester City, which were committed to winning the FA Cup semifinal against Chelsea.

Saliba says they're better equipped to withstand the pressure in the run-in: "Of course we are.

"We have good experience from last year and this season as well. We know it can be up and down very quickly, so we are well prepared. Anything can happen in the last five games. If we want something at the end, we have to win. We started well today and we have to keep going.

"If we want to put some pressure on, we have to win, win, win and keep going like this. We know it will be hard but we are prepared."
