Captain William Gallas says that his young Arsenal side have proven that they can and will fight every inch of a football match after earning a deserved draw against a lucky Liverpool side.
Gallas said: "We showed everybody we can fight for the title.
"A lot of people wanted to see how Arsenal would react against a big team like Liverpool and we reacted very well. Maybe we can be disappointed because we didn't win."
"Everybody watched that game in front of their TV and a lot of teams will be afraid of Arsenal.
"Liverpool were maybe a little bit afraid of us and a lot of top teams will be afraid of us again.
"We play well, we can score at any time or we can play the physical game as well.
"For me, it will be very difficult to win the title.
"There are three or four teams who can win it.
"Manchester United will be one of them - but you have another team in Chelsea.
"We have to think about Chelsea as well because they won 6-0 against Manchester City."

This season will be very close indeed. Man U and Chelsea are our biggest rivals. I can't say that about Liverpool because they were dominated by us for around 75 minutes of the game saturday and on their home turf. If your team is going to win the league they must make their home ground a fortress and try to make sure to get as many points they can there as possible. I think if Gallas or Toure don't get injured we'll win but Senderos is the main back-up player and he simply isn't good enough. The African Nations Cup will definetely be a testing time for Arsenal but i think we have the resources to get through it. I don't think any team will take us for granted now after the point at Anfield.
