Arsene Wenger has conceded the title to Chelsea

Chelsea are now 12 points clear of Arsenal after Wenger's men fell to a 2-1 defeat at Swansea yesterday.

Jose Mourinho's side dispatched Liverpool by the same scoreline at Anfield on Saturday, to continue their unbeaten streak.

The Blues are just four points behind second-place Southampton, but Wenger has surrendered the title to Chelsea already. 

"Look at the season and Chelsea are on course for 105 points," Wenger said.

Swansea 2-1 Arsenal: Arsene Wenger watches Gunners throw away lead

"Look at the number of points they have today and if they keep that up nobody will touch them, that's for sure.

"It doesn't look like anybody is capable of challenging them at the moment.

"There's no obvious reason, but they have had a good start and as long as you don't lose you don't question yourself.

"Maybe a little bit more extra spirit in the team helps them when it gets tight."

Arsenal went 1-0 at the Liberty Stadium through Alexis Sanchez but slipped to defeat through goals from Gylfi Sigurdsson and Bafetimbi Gomis.

The Gunners had a three-goal lead against Anderlecht in midweek but fell to a 3-3 draw and Wenger was stumped as to explain his team's recent collapses

Wenger has seen his side lose more points from winning positions than any other Prem team this term

"It was a game we were quite in control of at 1-0 up," Wenger said.

"I think we allowed them back into the game with challenges in the middle of the park that you can't afford to lose and we were a bit on the back foot after that.

"It was unfortunate to lose a game like that. We produced quite a decent performance for 75 minutes, but you have to last 90 minutes.

"Did the game on Tuesday play a part in our mind? I don't think so, I hope not, and you have to give Swansea credit.

"They didn't give up and the free-kick gave them the momentum at the end, we have to take it on the chin because we didn't play for 90 minutes."
