Arsenal midfielder Cesc Fabregas believes that his side can challenge Chelsea and Manchester United for the Premiership title this season.
A 4-0 rout of Reading moved the Gunners to within five points of the top two with a game in hand and Fabregas is eyeing a season-long race.
He told the club's official website: "I think it will be difficult to win the title, but we feel we can make it.
"We are up against very good teams, not just Chelsea and Manchester United but Liverpool too, even though they are not at their best at the moment.
"And be careful of Bolton. No-one is talking about them, but they are still winning. I'm sure there will be four or five teams up at the top and we need to be one of them.
"After the first three games this season people were saying that we would have the same problems as last year.
"We were creating so many opportunities and the ball didn't want to go into the net."
Meanwhile, Gunners boss Arsene Wenger has ruled out any moves into the transfer market during the January window.
He added: "We have a squad and we will not buy in January.
"We will keep with the squad until the end of the season. In January we will jump over the transfer window."
