The Gunners went two points clear at the top
of the table with a 4-1 win over Norwich on
Saturday, but their manager was keen to play
down title talk
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger hailed one of
the goals of the season after his side cruised
to a 4-1 win over Norwich City to extend their
lead at the top of the Premier League table.
The Gunners were in scintillating form as
Mesut Ozil scored his first two goals for the
club either side of a superb solo strike from
Aaron Ramsey.
But it was Jack Wilshere's opener - a classy
volley following a sensational team move - that
had Wenger purring in his post-match press
conference.
"It was certainly one of the best goals of the
season and one I enjoyed the most," Wenger
said. "It was the combination and speed I like
to play. It was a mix of technical quality,
speedy thinking and quick reaction.
"It was a great goal. I think we have scored
some good goals already this season, but the
first today was exceptional."
The result takes the Gunners two points clear
of second-placed Chelsea after eight matches,
but Wenger was keen to play down the
suggestion that his side are now favourites for
the title.
"We have a good attitude and are hungry," he
added. "We have a good solidarity level and
quality. We have belief and that is
strengthened by every win. There is a long way
to go and I believe we just have to focus as a
team and keep that solidarity there."
