“We Are Ready To Fight For The Title” – Wenger

 Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger, has expressed his belief that the 2-0 win over Southampton on Saturday, shows that they are ready to fight for the title.

 Olivier Giroud’s brace against the Saints, ensured that the Gunners extended their lead at the top of the table to four points.

Wenger was pleased with how his team were able to dig out three points, in a testing encounter.

 “This win shows we are ready for a fight when it didn’t go as fluently as we wanted,” Wenger said. “That is the most pleasing thing. We were tested by being challenged for every single ball and we responded quite well.

“We always had the focus and I could never feel that we eased off. They made it very difficult for us.

“We could see a good togetherness to help each other out,” Wenger added. “We knew that we were sometimes in trouble and you felt that they were ready to fight for each other...
That is the solidarity level that was needed. It’s very important.”
