Arsenal Failed to Remain at Top Spot

Arsene Wenger remains calm

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger insists he is not worried about the prospect of beginning 2008 trailing Manchester United in the race for the Premier League title. The Gunners failed to reclaim top spot from United last night when they were held to a 0-0 draw at Portsmouth. Now they must prepare for Saturday's trip to in-form Everton in the knowledge that United, who dismantled Sunderland 4-0 and finish the year at West Ham, have their destiny in their own hands.
