Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has refused to give up hope of catching Liverpool in the Premier League title race.
Mikel Arteta remains positive that Arsenal can claw back their 13-point gap to Liverpool with just 11 games to go.
The Gunners played out a 0-0 draw against Nottingham Forest in midweek, and Liverpool defeated Newcastle 2-0 to place one hand on the title.
Despite the Gunners' deficit and less than inspiring recent displays, Arteta remains defiant.

Liverpool's Title Timeline: When Mo Salah & co. can clinch Premier League glory
A quick look at when Mo Salah’s Liverpool could win the PL as early as April 5 at Fulham with 78 pts if they win 3 and Arsenal lose 4. Or April 26 vs Spurs if 13-pt lead holds.
He said in the post-match press conference (via ESPN): “It was the same a week ago, two weeks ago, three months ago. The only thing we can do is win our matches and see how many points we get.
“We have dropped two points in this game and it is painful. It doesn’t feel good because we’re here to win.
“We showed unquestionable character in how much we wanted it and tried. We dominated the game and tried in many different ways.
“I believe we insisted but lacked that spark, that final pass to unlock a well-organised team. We have to generate more shots on target.”
The Gunners are not in FA Cup action this weekend, which means their next games are away at PSV in the UEFA Champions League and Manchester United at Old Trafford.
