Manuel Almunia Excited with a Tight League Race

Manuel Almunia is the goalkeeper of Arsenal and he has been in good form this season. Expressing his reaction to the website of Arsenal Football Club, he stated his satisfaction over the way things are going for his club this season:
"Sometimes we look back and think, if we had been more consistent, we would be first in the table now. Until the end of the season, there will be a few teams fighting for the title and it will be one of the tightest Leagues for years.
"Not many players knew about the Man United defeat [on Saturday afternoon] before our kick-off. We were just focused on our game. I knew the result but when you are on the pitch, you don't think about other results. But you do look forward to the game a bit more.
"We don't play midweek this week and we wanted to enjoy Christmas with the family knowing you have taken a good three points."

This weekends’ results mean that Arsenal is now very close to Chelsea and Manchester United in the point table.
