ARSENE WENGER DISAPPOINTED WITH POINT.

Arsene wenger was disappointed
Arsenal could not hold on to the lead against Everton but refused to turn his nose up at a point gained.

Mesut Ozil looked to have won the game when opening the scoring on 80 minutes, however, Roberto Martinez's well-drilled side produced an instant response as
substitute Gerard Deulofeu, on loan from Barcelona, equalised four minutes later.

Arsenal almost snatched a dramatic
victory in stoppage-time when Olivier Giroud's 25-yard effort struck the woodwork, but Everton deserved to take something back to Merseyside.

"We played against a very good side, in the end we are a bit disappointed to getcaught back with a 1-0 result, but overall
it's still a point," Wenger said.
Next up is in the league is Manchester City and Wenger hopes his side can maintain their slender advantage at the top of the table, with the visit of Chelsea
set for December 23.

"As long as we are five points ahead, you cannot rule ourselves out even with the best desire, so let's keep that cushion," he said.
"It shows you that it will be a
tough Premier League and the
consistency in the end will be rewarded.
"The consistency for us is down to us to keep this attitude until the end of the season."
