Dec 2 : Two draws in three Premier League games have stalled Arsenal's progress and although they still have a five-point lead at the top, Mikel Arteta has called on his team and their fans to bring energy "like animals" when they play Brentford on Wednesday.

Arsenal, who finished second in the last three seasons, are bidding for their first league title since 2004.

"It's an opportunity tomorrow at 7.30pm - everybody, 7.30pm - to be at the Emirates, bouncing and putting energy to win the game," Arteta told reporters on Tuesday.

"7.30pm. Like animals, everybody at the Emirates, to go again and beat Brentford. That's the opportunity. Vital. Massive."
