Arsenal want to keep digging, says Arteta

Manchester City have a game in hand on top of their slender lead, but Arsenal are refusing to give up the fight in their hunt for a first league title in 19 years.

Mikel Arteta gave a press conference after the 2-0 win over Newcastle and said they want to keep fighting until the end: "We are there, we want to keep digging. The prize is there, not too far and the only thing we can do is keep insisting. Be determined every single day, let’s keep going and see what happens," he began.

"We have to prove that we are able to do it against Brighton. It's going to be a completely different game, really demanding, and we're going to have to be at our best to beat them again.

"We've done it for 10 and a half months I think, we have to keep doing it, we are there. It feels very different to 10 days ago, we have to make sure that the momentum is there," Arteta concluded.
