Arsene Wenger has no doubts his young Arsenal side have the "maturity" needed to "dig in" and stay the distance in the Barclays Premier League title race.
A comfortable 3-0 win over Newcastle at Emirates Stadium moved the Gunners back to the top of the Barclays Premier League on Tuesday night and Wenger´s men - led by 19-goal Togo hitman Emmanuel Adebayor - remain very much in the hunt with 14 games left to play.
"We can be patient, move the ball and keep our concentration, not making a mistake. Last year we were not capable of doing that," insisted Wenger. "They can dig in, and I feel we are much more mature than last season."
