Fabregas warns title rivals Man U, Chelsea
January 18th, 2010 - 2:55 pm ICT by ANI
London, Jan 18 (ANI): Arsenal skipper Cesc Fabregas has sent out a warning to title rivals Chelsea and Manchester United that the Gunners will top the Premier League if they repeat their two-goal win over Bolton in the return fixture on Wednesday.
Fabregas said: “There is all to play for. It’s very important to win for the title race.”
The skipper scored the opener and set up the second as Arsenal ruined Owen Coyle’s first game as Bolton boss.
“It is very important for us to win again on Wednesday for the title. But we respect every Prem team, anyone can beat anyone,” The Sun quoted Fabregas, as saying.
Gunners boss Arsene Wenger reckons going top will be a huge confidence boost as his side chase a first title since 2004.
“Our motivation is 100 per cent and it will mean a lot to the players to go top. When the season started we were not all convinced in our squad we could be where we are,” he said.
“We are in a position that nobody expected but now we are there we want to have a go,” Wenger added. (ANI)
