Arsenal manager is focussed only on his own team
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger says that he and his players are not obsessed with the performances of city rivals Tottenham Hotspur this season.
While Wenger's Gunners are currently fifth in the Premier League table, one point behind fourth-placed Chelsea, Spurs are level on points with second-placed Manchester United.
Harry Redknapp's Tottenham are being considered real title contenders this campaign as after 20 rounds of matches they are only three points behind leaders Manchester City, but Wenger is not concerned with that.
"I don't look at Tottenham frankly," stated the Frenchman. "We look at the potential we have and then think that we gave absolutely everything to fulfil it.
"The attitude is right and I am confident that we can do that.
Open championship
"Tottenham are a good side, they make points, but there is a long way to go.
"At the moment it still looks very open and there is no one who dominates this championship.
"Let's wait to see what happens at the end of the season.
"No matter who wins the league, whether it is us or somebody else, we will respect it and congratulate them.
"At the moment what is important for us is to come back and fight.
"We will fight with Man United, Man City, Chelsea, Liverpool, Newcastle - all these teams to go as far as we can."
