Arsene Wenger 'worried' that Arsenal could miss out on top four

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger admits that he is 'worried' that his team will not finish in the top four.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has admitted that he is 'worried' that the team may fail to finish the Premier League season in the top four.

The Gunners were title hopefuls in the first half of the season, but have since slipped out of contention, leaving Leicester City and Tottenham Hotspur to battle it out.

After Sunday's goalless draw with Sunderland at the Stadium of Light, Arsenal are fourth in the table, level on points with third-placed Manchester City and five points above Manchester United.

When asked by reporters if he felt anxious about finishing in the top four, Arsenal said: "Yes, of course. We care about that and we worry about it as well because it's a fight.

"There are two leagues at the moment - the teams who are taking it a little bit easier, you see some games and you think you would like to play them now, the teams who are safe and are not going for Europe, and then you have the teams who are going for something at the front and the teams who are fighting not to go down, and they are different games.

"It is frustrating because we play to win the title and the fact that we do not win it is of course frustrating, like it is for many other teams."

Arsenal have just three games left to play this season.
