Posted by Mikel Arteta, the manager of Arsenal, has stated that his team can only concentrate on themselves in the title fight.
On Boxing Day, Arteta addressed the media following a 3-1 victory over West Ham.
In their first game back following the World Cup, the Gunners rallied from a goal down to earn all three points.
They currently have seven more points than Newcastle, who are in second position, and eight more than Manchester City, who will be visiting Leeds on Thursday.
Arteta has now urged his team to focus on one task at a time.
We need to keep our attention on ourselves, he stressed to the players. We have no influence over what the opposition will do, how skilled they will become, or how many points they will gain or lose.
“As a result, we must pay attention to how we perform, what we do every day, and how we got here.
We must continue doing what we are doing because it is not a coincidence.
