Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger insists that his side have a "good chance" of challenging for the Premier League title this season.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has claimed that his side have a "good chance" of challenging for the Premier League title this season.

The Gunners are one of three teams currently locked on 20 points at the top of the table after nine games and have not lost since the opening day of the campaign.

Wenger believes that the title will be won with a points tally of between 82 and 86, and is confident that his side will be in the mix during the closing months of the season.

"Today we are in a much more competitive position to fight for the title than five or six years ago. I believe we have a competitive team in a very competitive league," he said at the club's annual general meeting.

"After nine games we have 20 points, which means the championship will be decided between 82 to 86 points. I believe the team has the commitment, togetherness, hunger, desire and unity, and we have a good chance to compete for the Premier League.

"That is the target and I am absolutely committed to fulfilling it and giving my best so that we are successful until the end of the season."

Arsenal have not won the Premier League title since going unbeaten throughout the 2003-04 campaign.
