Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has blamed his side's poor finish as the reason behind their goalless draw against Southampton in their Premier League clash at the Emirates Stadium.

With another draw, Arsenal have gone 270 minutes and 34 shots in the league without scoring.

Wenger insisted that his side managed to create ten good chances, but were unable to finish the game on a high, the Guardian reported.

The French manager felt that his side produced a really good performance in the second half of the game and, therefore, called on Arsenal to focus on their performance in order to win the upcoming matches.

Southampton Ronald Koeman, however, praised Arsenal's superb form and ability to create so many chances, insisting that they still have an opportunity to clinch title.

Arsenal, who are currently placed fourth in the league standings, will next play against Bournemouth on February 7.
