Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger happy with lunchtime kick-off against Manchester City

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger says he is not concerned by the timing of their Premier League game with Manchester City.

Wenger believes the pressure is on Manchester City, adding: "Let's not forget as well that if you are in City's position, if they lose they are nine points behind, so they have more negative pressure than we have. "We have a positive pressure that we can make a big difference with them, so let's look at it like that." Wenger has urged his side to remain mentally strong as they approach another crucial match in the title race. He said: "It is a game where we can make a difference with everybody. What we want to do is just to be ourselves with our quality, with our spirit, with our attitude. We want to get a result. "I think we have an opportunity to make the difference with everybody else tomorrow morning early. We play first and we have the opportunity to go from five to eight and that's fantastic. We have to look at it like that. "I don't deny that every game has a vital importance because of the inference on confidence and the belief of the team. "I believe what we just want from your team is to show during this period a huge level of commitment and belief. That can make a massive difference."
