Barcelona midfielder Cesc Fabregas feels Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger can win the Premier League title this season.
Arsenal sit top of the Premier League after eight games, and Fabregas believes this may well be the season Wenger's men end a trophy drought which stretches back to 2005 - although he predicts the festive fixtures will be key.
"I really hope so," he said. "They've started very well. They look very strong; let's see how they last.
"In the Premier League you can be going well and then you lose two games and you slip away quickly. It's very sudden.
"A lot gets decided over Christmas: the team that hangs in there best, that can resist the best, will take the title."
