Wenger sets tough target for Gunners

MIDDLESBROUGH, England - Beleaguered Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger challenged his players to win every game between now and the end of the season to keep alive faint hopes of a top-four Premier League finish.

Seven league wins is the only way the Frenchman reckons the Gunners can secure a Champions League place after ending a run of four away league losses with a 2-1 victory over struggling Middlesbrough on Monday.

"We have to win every game to have a chance to get in the top four," said Wenger, who has yet to finish outside the top four in his 21-year reign.
