Arsenal boss Wenger rates Spurs, Villa as title contenders

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger insists Tottenham and Aston Villa are capable of winning the title this season.

Wenger's Arsenal are back in the Premiership race after victory at Liverpool last night.

He said: "We know this gets us back into it. Mathematically we're in a good position again.

"We knew with what happened with the results yesterday, that we needed to win here. We did so and that's something very positive. Now it is down to consistency.

"Whoever wins this league is going to be the one capable of being really consistent and no one has done that yet.

"But I don't think it's a three-horse race because there are the likes of Villa, Spurs and Manchester City too.

"I said after our game against them that Chelsea would drop points. They have and they will - everyone will because there are so many good teams in the league.

"A lot of sides will drop points here at Anfield too when Liverpool have everyone fit. They were very impressive in the first half."
