Consistency Key For Title Challenge, Claims Wenger
-
If it hadn't been for an Eduardo leg-break at St Andrews and a resultant run of four consecutive draws in February last season, it could have been Arsenal who were defending the Premier League crown this year, and not Manchester United.
Everton finished 5th last term, one better than their position the season prior. But Wenger believes it could be one of Manchester City, Portsmouth, or even hated neighbours Tottenham Hotspur who could challenge the top four for a position in the Champions League.
"This season you will need a high number of points and you will have to be consistent," Wenger told the club's official website.
Regarding any winter window recruits, he added: "I don’t know how many we’ll need, ask me again in January then we will have a better idea."
Concerning the surprise packages this season, Wenger said: "You might have a surprising team coming in to challenge like Man City, Tottenham and maybe Portsmouth. It will certainly be very tight and very interesting."
"Last season, I feel we did not get enough credit for what we did. We were very close," he said. "We made 83 points in the League and I have won the title with 78 before. But the competition was very high last season and looks like it will be the same this season," he concluded.consistency is important. thats what i feel arsenal lack in, maybe due to lack of experience
