Some may think he is crazy but Jack Wilshere believes Arsenal can still win the title this season.
The Gunners currently find themselves seven points behind leaders Manchester United with a game in hand. Whilst United are go head to head with city rivals Manchester City for an FA Cup Final place Arsenal will be entertaining Liverpool where a victory will cut the gap to four points.
Arsenals run in is difficult. As well as playing Liverpool the Gunners have to play Tottenham Hotspur who are pushing for a Champions League spot and a possible title deciding match against Manchester United on May 1 but the 19 year old England international still thinks Arsenal can end their barren spell and win some silverware.
He told the Daily Express "Playing in Europe is going to catch up with them. We have got a week in between every game now to prepare ourselves, so it can only be good for us. We have got a game in hand and United have still got to come to the Emirates. If we win those games, we're within one point of them."
The Gunners beat Blackpool 3-1 at the weekend, their first win in 5 matches, so if Wilshere is to realise the dream and win a Premier League title in his first full season he knows Arsenal must win all of their remaining matches and hope United slip up on the way.
Arsenal fans, do you think Wilshere has a point or should the team concentrate on next season. Man Utd fans, do you think the elusive 19th title is finally yours or is there still a long way to go?
