AARON RAMSEY admits Arsenal need a strong run to get their title hopes back on track.

 

Aaron Ramsey thinks Arsenal need a run to get back involved in the title race

 

The Gunners lost ground on leaders Leicester and second-place Manchester City yesterday and were even leapfrogged by Tottenham after the goalless draw with Southampton.

Arsenal have now gone four Premier League games without a win and haven't scored in their last three.

They now sit five points behind Leicester, two behind City and ten goals behind Tottenham.

 

Manchester United have pulled within five points.

Arsenal face Bournemouth on Sunday - at which point Leicester could be eight points clear if they beat City in the top of the table clash on Saturday.

And Ramsey knows Arsenal need to turn it back on.

"Many points are up for grabs," he said. "We’re going to have to bounce back and go on a bit of a run."

 

On the frustration of losing two points at home to Southampton, who have now gone four games without conceding since the return of Fraser Forster from injury, he said: "It’s obviously disappointing to draw the game. 

"We want to win our home games and we felt like we needed to bounce back from having lost against Chelsea. 

"It wasn’t to be today. We’re obviously gutted but there’s still a long way to go and we’ll have to bounce back now."
