Fabregas: Gunners can win at OT

  Arsenal midfielder Cesc Fabregas insists the Gunners can beat Manchester United at Old Trafford and claim the Premier League crown.

   

  

  Arsenal led the table by five points last month but a run of five games without a win has badly hurt their title bid and they now trail United by six points.

  Arsene Wenger's side face a tough fortnight with three games against Liverpool in a week followed by the trip to face United on April 13.

  Last weekend's 2-1 defeat by Chelsea saw the Blues push Arsenal down to third, but Fabregas believes there can be another twist in an enthralling season.

  "If we want to win the league we cannot lose any more points," he told the Sun. "We have to think positive.

  "We have to believe we can do it. Whatever happens we fight to the end - that is what we are recognised for. We can change things.

  "Man United have to go to Chelsea and we're going to Old Trafford to win. Of course we can win there. We did it last season and we've done it a few times in recent years so why not this time?"

  I think can say that this is almost a make of break game for the gunners... They lose this and they can kiss the epl title bye bye liao... So you can expect a gunners side going all out for this match... April 13...

  with only 6 games left to go, i think the top 4 will have to go all the way for each fixture, although we have a 5 point lead over our nearest rivals, but we should not be complacent, SAF knows that, any lose among the remaining fixtures is a disaster.. we still need to visit the chelskis where they have not being beaten...maybe its time we set our records straight once and for all who are the real champions;)

  You mean if Liverpool hold Arsenal and we beat Chelsea?

  Yes it would be extra sweet to be the club to end their 3 yrs plus unbeaten home record... It won't be easy cos they are strong at home but if anyone can do it, it's United... cos we have the experience... like the way we ended gunners 49 match unbeaten record... and after that, they went on a tailspin... and till today, they still haven't won anything since... Must have been a real traumatic experience for the manager and players...

  But don't bet on Pool doing it cos they got the CL match as well so i am afraid they may "take it easy" for the premiership match in between...
