Arsene Wenger may still talk up his Arsenal side's title prospects but the manager knows the FA Cup third round tie with Plymouth Argyle today is almost as important for the Gunners as the Premier League.

Wenger brought the curtain down on a miserable year by confidently declaring his current side to be on the verge of greatness.
And while he insists his side can still recover the ten-point deficit on league leaders Liverpool, Arsenal's most realistic chance of domestic success this season lies in the FA Cup where Plymouth, of the second-tier championship, are unlikely to halt their passage into the fourth round.
That would at least take Arsenal one step nearer a trophy and revive a reputation which their French boss believes has been unfairly maligned.
"I'm disappointed that the team is not getting the praise or the respect it deserves at the moment, but we have to keep going," the manager said.
We will keep going with this spirit and we will turn people around. I'm convinced that we are on the right track.
