Arsene Wenger is adamant his Arsenal team are not out of the title race, despite being ten points behind rivals Chelsea in the table. Arsenal have already lost five games this season, but despite the chaos which has surrounded the north London club over recent weeks, Wenger still believes his young team can be a match for any side in the world.Wenger is confident his side can return to winning ways in the Premier League when they face a must-win game against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.
Wenger said: "We want to get back into it and the only way to get back into it is to win the game on Sunday.
"We know that direct confrontations with top teams becomes vital when you are in our position. I believe seeing the other teams play, we know we can beat them and that is the only way to get back into it.
"You cannot say when you are ten points behind that we are favourites to win the Championship but the only way we can get back into it is to believe we can.
"There is no team in the world that is not vulnerable. We have to go with extreme desire and express our strong points and not hide.
"We can play and win everywhere in the world. We have not to consider too much who we play against. We know Chelsea are a great side with a great players. But at the end of the day you beat them if you play at your best."
