Alexandre Lacazette has admitted it was never his ultimate goal to win the title at Arsenal this season, saying he joined the club to qualify for the Champions League.
The Gunners splashed out £52million to land the France international in the summer, and he's netted eight times in all competitions.
But Arsenal are well off the pace in the Premier league - a staggering 17 points behind leaders Manchester City - and Lacazette believes the club would need a "miracle" to catch Pep Guardiola's team.
"It would be really complicated to win it at this point," said the Frenchman. "We would really need a miracle. City would need to lose a lot of their games and we know their record."
Despite the obvious disappointment for Arsenal fans - the fact that this statement has been made in December - Lacazette claims that Arsenal are instead focused on qualifying for the Champions League.
He added: "The goal in coming here was always to qualify for the Champions League and if we could get the title, fantastic."
Lacazette also discussed his decision to leave Lyon behind in the summer for pastures new in north London, and explained his reasons for doing so.
"It was really the meeting with the coach that made me want to come here, it was something I had thought about since I was little," he said.
"I had spoken about it a lot for many years with Francis Coquelin but it was really all about that meeting with the coach.
"I benefit from his experience on a daily basis, especially his past and how he has worked with various strikers.
"We are always chatting about small things I can do to make little improvements. It will be a really nice record for him too."
Asked if Henry's success at the club acted as inspiration, Lacazette added: "I guess, in terms of inspiration I do admire him but I wouldn't want to copy him.
"Everyone has their own career, their own fate and everyone writes their own story."
