Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger believes that Manchester United are still in the Premier League title race.

The Red Devils are currently 12 points off the pace following a 1-0 home defeat to Everton at Old Trafford on Wednesday.

"No [I won't rule them out of the title race]," the Frenchman told reporters. "It's still early.

"It is a surprising defeat [to Everton] but it is still early. We have seen that before, 12 points, only on us.

"We have just to keep winning to have a chance, and not worry too much about the others."

Arsenal are four points clear at the top of the table.
