Arsenal fans will love what Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang said on Chelsea and the Champions League

Arsenal captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang insists his side can catch up to Chelsea in the Premier League this season.

The Gunners are currently 10th in the table and trail Frank Lampard's side in fourth by eight points with a game in hand - though that match will come against Manchester City.

Mikel Arteta's side are unbeaten in the league in 2020, and have won their last two games while the likes of Chelsea, Manchester United and Spurs have faltered of late.

Arsenal face West Ham at home on Saturday afternoon hoping to close the gap on the Blues to five points before their tough clash against Everton on Sunday.

And Aubameyang says that his side can bridge the gap to the top four before the end of the season.

"I think it's possible, everything is possible," Aubameyang told Sky Sports . "Last season, we were 10 points down from the top four and we came back at the end and were really close, but I think we can do it.

"When you see the games we have and what the other teams have, I think everything is possible.

"We have to be focused on what we're doing and I think the team is doing well.

"We have some thing to improve, but I'm sure that now we have more pressure because we only have the chance to be in the Champions League because of the Premier League.

"That's the way and we have to be focused on that and try to reach our goal."
