Arsenal hero Ray Parlour says they must beat Liverpool today to stay in the title race.

The Gunners are five points behind leaders Liverpool.

Parlour told the Daily Star: "They've [Arsenal] got to bounce back.

"But if they lose against Liverpool, suddenly it's big, big trouble for the title.

"It's an old cliché, but you've got to take it one game at a time. The most important one is the next game now. Arsenal need to make sure they win that one and then hopefully that gives the lads a little bit more confidence and go forward in the title race."
