Arsene Wenger says Arsenal must not dream about catching Premier League leaders Chelsea in the title race and instead focus purely on getting a statement victory against Liverpool.
Fourth-placed Arsenal are 13 points behind Chelsea with a game in hand going into Saturday’s crucial match against Jurgen Klopp’s side at Anfield.
But while he is not ruling out a late charge for the title, Wenger wants to ensure Chelsea are not the team in Arsenal’s minds on Merseyside.
“We have a game in hand and things can change quickly, but we have to focus on our next game,” the Arsenal manager told reporters.
“To do a thing like that, you need exceptional rhythm in your results and, as well, Chelsea to fade.
“At the moment it is more important that we focus on winning our games and focus on our next game rather than dreaming about coming back to Chelsea.”
