Striker Emmanuel Adebayor says that Arsenal are still in the title race, despite failing to claw back some ground on leaders Liverpool over the weekend.

The Togolese international was sent off by referee Howard Webb in the second half of the match.

Adebayor said: "Even with 10 men, we managed to get a point against Liverpool who are at the top of the table with players who are playing well. We still have a chance to do something.

"We have to go there [to Anfield], they have to play Manchester United and Chelsea too. The title is still open for everyone to win it.

"To be honest, I do not know yet [how costly Sunday's draw will be]. I will tell you that at the end of the season.

"The referee took those two points away, and if you think about our own mistakes in some other games, you can see where the title could have gone. But at the moment, we are still there and have just to keep going."

"At the end of the day, I can say it is a point gained because we were playing with 10 men for the last 30 minutes of the game.

"We are not happy, but we can be pleased with the performance of the team. Every single player has shown character and that is what is good.

"We just have to keep going now, and have shown that even with 10 we can play good football and so with 11 we have a chance to win."

It'd be great for this team if this guy would just SHUT UP! Far better players in the league don't talk this much. He should face his football which is quite awful this season.
