RVP: Gunners looking good for title

22 October 2009 09:03
The Gunners striker is hoping to help his side to a first top flight crown in six years and feels they are well placed to end that barren run. Arsene Wenger's men have seen a number of their rivals wobble of late, while they have established the kind of consistency which suggests they will be in the mix come next May. Dutch ace van Persie expects that to be the case, insisting the north London outfit have learned from mistakes they have made in the past and are ready to reclaim their standing at the summit of English football. "We're very encouraged by other teams dropping points," he said, with Arsenal currently sitting fourth in the Premier League table and holding a game in hand on all of the sides above them. "When you look at last weekend, Liverpool lost three points, Chelsea lost. "In our last eight league games, we've won six so it's looking good for us. "As long as we stay consistent against the smaller teams. We need to keep winning the three points against them. "Last season we had some bad spells. We had four draws as well back-to-back so we have to avoid that." Prem 2009/10 Win Outright: Arsenal 4/1
