    <span class="titolo">Wenger Still Eyeing Top Spot</span></p>

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'></p>

    <span class="sommario">Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger thinks the odds are stacked in his favour as the Gunners seek top spot&hellip;</span></p>

    <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">As Champions League Group H reaches its conclusion, Arsenal are looking to finish strongly after struggling in their last two games.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

    <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">The Gunners were held to a stalemate at Slavia Prague and a shock 3-1 defeat in </span><st1:city><st1:place><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">Seville</span></st1:place></st1:city><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;"> has meant that the Spanish side go into Matchday 6 as group leaders..<o:p></o:p></span></p>

    <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">Wenger is sure that his team can Sevilla slipping up while his Gunners dispatch of Steaua Bucharest at the Emirates.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

    <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">"I still think we have more than a 50 per cent chance of finishing top of the group," the Frenchman told the club's official website.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

    <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">"We are playing catch-up, but Sevilla have a difficult game away from home at Slavia Prague.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

    <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">"We want to finish this group with a victory. It is very important for us to win our game because if Sevilla don't win we'll finish top of the group.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

    <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">"I'll try to find the right balance between not losing and keeping a strong team against Steaua.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

    <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">"I feel we gave up a big advantage, and yes that was partly down to my selection. But I had many players on the edge after the international games and I had to make a choice because I knew we played three times away.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

    <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">"I should not even have played Fabregas at Sevilla because I ended up losing him to injury."</span></p>
