Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger claims that every league game is now a "cup final" for his side following their goalless draw at Bolton.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has claimed that every Premier League game is now a "cup final" for his side following their goalless draw at Bolton Wanderers.

Despite hitting the woodwork twice, the Gunners were unable to make the breakthrough at the Reebok Stadium as they slipped five points off the Champions League places.

"We feel we have dropped two points because we had chances to win the game, but we produced a decent game against a difficult opponent who gives you the ball, marks tight and waits for their chance," said the Frenchman.

"But I am still confident of a top-four finish. There is a long way to go. I'm confident we can come back. We have come through a difficult period.

"We are confident, but I believe we have to produce our form game by game. For us, every game in the championship now is a cup final."

Arsenal next host Blackburn Rovers in the league on Saturday.
