Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta says they are focusing on what they can achieve this season.

The Gunners are now favorites to claim fourth spot in the league, as they are a point ahead of Manchester United with three games in hand.

Speaking after their 3-2 win over Watford on Sunday, Arteta said they were not obsessing over the results of their rivals in the table.

Asked about the top-four race, he told reporters: "To be fair, I don't like to look at the table a lot because we have games in hand, we're going to play different fixtures and I know the objective and it's only one, to try and improve tomorrow on what we've done today and go into the next match and that's it.

"I cannot control results and I cannot predict which matches we are going to win, draw or lose, it's impossible.

"If I start to do that I think we're going to lose focus in what we want to do."
