'We don't look that far': Oleksandr Zinchenko not getting carried away in title race

Speaking to Sky Sports about the title race, Oleksandr Zinchenko said: "We don't look that far. We need to be focused on every single game and go step by step. The way the fans are supporting us, it's incredible and they deserve the best.

"But I tell you, there are only two things we need to do: hard work and belief. On top of it, there's consistency. There is no limit to improvement, there's a lot of space in every single detail. Every point is so important.

"I know it from the past. When I was at Manchester City, we were dropping a lot of really important points against teams where we were stronger [than them] because anything can happen in football.

"If we have chances to score, we need to score. The most important thing is that everyone is humble and professional. Everyone needs to play his role. Now is the most important of the season and we need to fight for something big."

The 2022/23 Premier League campaign gets back underway later this month with Arsenal sitting at the top of the table, five points clear of second-placed Man City.

There will be a major issue for Mikel Arteta to deal with in the title race now that the Gunners' main striker, Gabriel Jesus, is out for up to three months with a knee injury.
