Jack Wilshere believes he and his team-mates must become more clinical in front of goal before they can think about winning the Premier League title.
The Gunners lost out 2-0 to league leaders Chelsea on Sunday, despite having plenty of possession and creating several chances.
Wilshere, claims that the biggest difference between his side and Jose Mourinho’s is huge in respect to ‘finishing chances’.
“At times we controlled the game and that is the difference, at this level when you are playing against a top-class team, when you are on top you have to really make it count,” he told Sky Sports News.
“We created a few half chances, but we never really made it count. You didn’t really see Cesc Fabregas or Diego Costa all game and then, all of a sudden, a 50-yard ball from Cesc put it on Costa’s foot and it is a great finish, and the game is over.
“We have played well, but at this level, against the top three in this league, when you are on top you need to make the opportunities count and if you don’t, then you are going to get punished.”
