Gunners are brimming with confidence

It’s all systems go for Arsenal in their attempt to land the EPL title. Written off after trailing the league leaders by eleven points in December, the Gunners have defied the sceptics and are now level on points with leaders Chelsea after their 2-1 win over Hull on Saturday. What’s more, Arsene Wenger’s men have a far easier run-in than their fellow title contenders Chelsea and Manchester United. "Like some people before Christmas, I believed we were out of the title race but now I really believe we are back in the hunt," said Wenger on Saturday. "There are eight games to go and we are very much in it. We have the belief that we can go on and do it. The team spirit is very special and we score lots of goals in the last 15 minutes.” United, a point off the lead, play Fulham on Sunday.
