THEY STILL BELIEVE - BLESS 'EM

"When we see the fixtures, we think every game is winnable. We genuinely believe we can win every game we play. What we have to do now is to put that into practice.

"We are dependent on Chelsea dropping points, so to a certain extent it is out of our hands.

"But we must strive to make sure we are ready and waiting for any slip.

"We need to go on a charge but with the kind of attitude we have shown, we won't go far wrong."

Ferdie:

"That win was fantastic for confidence and we've got to maintain that now. It is no good doing it in one game and then slipping up in the next one.

"There is no point in looking at other people because that's how you go off your own game. We have to look at ourselves and get our own house in order.

"There are signs, in the Premiership at least, that this is starting to happen."

Van der Sar:

"Hopefully the result on Wednesday helped us turn the corner.

"We are unbeaten in six games now but really we need to win six or seven matches on the trot.

"Hopefully the result at Highbury on Sunday will go for us but we can't look at anyone else at this stage. All we can do is concentrate on ourselves.

"Chelsea are not playing that well at the moment.

"But they are winning, and that is what counts because it gives you three points and breeds confidence."
