Arsene Wenger: This is how Arsenal can win the Premier League

Arsene Wenger says title could be decided by 80 points

 

ARSENAL boss Arsene Wenger believes 80 points could be enough to claim the Premier League title this season.

 

The Gunners currently sit second in the table after taking 33 points from the opening 16 games, sitting two points behind surprise leaders Leicester.

Manchester United were the last club to win the title with 80 points during the 2010/11 campaign, while Chelsea ran away with the championship last term with 87 points.

 

"It looks to be very tight," Wenger said. "We have played 16 games and the top team is on 35 points, so it means that the Premier League could be decided at around 80 points. 

"If you look at the results it looks as though the consistency will be the main priority in this league because every week you are surprised by the results.

"We have really established a good run so for us it's important to continue that."

Arsenal face third-place Manchester City at the Emirates on Monday night which could prove crucial in the title race.
