"I have said many times that I like having the pressure of getting a result on me," said Maresca, "but no, I have said it many times and I repeat it: we are not in the running for the title.
"I would like to say 'Yes, we are there too', but that is not the case.
"Arsenal are ahead of us. City are ahead of us. Liverpool are showing that they are ahead of us. The important thing for us is to continue to improve, game after game. In the future we will see."
