Arsene Wenger remains confident Arsenal can shake off their inconsistent form and mount a serious challenge for the Premier League title.

Wenger's side will attempt to bounce back from last weekend's surprise loss at West Bromwich Albion when they travel to Norwich City on Sunday, five days after keeping alive their hopes of reaching the Champions League knockout stages with a vital victory over Dinamo Zagreb.

With their European campaign on the back burner for two weeks, fourth-placed Arsenal can focus on catching unexpected top-tier leaders Leicester City.

“It is so tight and I don't even look at the league anymore because it is very, very tight,” Wenger said.
