Arsene Wenger: 'If we're consistent, will grab top-four spot'

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger believes that consistency is the key for the Gunners to secure Champions League qualification for next season.

The North London outfit's priority is reaching a top-four finish following their exits from the FA Cup and Europe's elite competition.

"We've got nine games to go - five at home and four away," BBC Sport quotes Wenger as saying. "We have a chance to finish in the top four.

"We have the experience of a few years and a special desire to do it together. It's a good opportunity for us. We want to grab this chance. If we are consistent we will do it. We're not focused on Tottenham [Hotspur], but the way we want to play."

The Gunners are four points adrift of fourth-placed Tottenham in the Premier League table.
