Cesc not giving up on title dream

Cesc Fabregas admits he has not given up hope of Arsenal winning the Premiership this season.

The midfield genius, who has played a significant role in two victories over Man United this season, admits it is annoying to have done so well against the big sides and still be so far behind.

"It is really annoying to beat Tottenham, Liverpool three times, Man United two times, draw at Chelsea then you see a table and [Man United] are far away," said the Spaniard.

"Today was the big day. If we have drawn or lost we could say goodbye to the Premiership," he admitted. "But there is still a small chance and until someone says to me it is over we will think we can still do it."

And why not? After five straight wins, including two at Anfield, one with ten men at Blackburn and now a late comeback against Man United, Fabregas admits the 1-0 embarassment to Sheffield United at the end of last year was a turning point in the Gunners' season.

"We said after the Sheffield United game that something had to change," said the 19-year-old. "We needed to be stronger in every part of the game. And since then we have showed everyone that we have changed.

"We have moved on. Nobody can stop us if we carry on playing the way we are playing. We lost 1-0 at Sheffield United and there was a lot of things to improve and think about. That's what we did and right now we are feeling really, really good."
