Newcastle - Arsenal's 2-1 win at Newcastle United have moved them to within four points of Premier League leaders Chelsea, but their manager Arsene Wenger believes that another statistic is equally relevant.
Even after Chelsea complete their next match at Hull City on Sunday, Jose Mourinho's team will still have played one match fewer than Arsenal and that is a significant factor, according to Wenger.
"Chelsea have good security at the moment. I feel they have enough of a cushion to be quite serene," said the Frenchman.
