Either he's a mentalist, or the BBC have fucked up this quote and it should probably say Villa.

Quote from: bbc

Pure mis-quote by The Sun, surprise surprise. Wenger was talking about tonights game with Everton and that "they could win" which would affect Arsenal's chances of winning the Premiership.

he said...

according to the Frenchman, six teams are involved and, of course, only four will qualify for the Champions League.

“I would not dismiss Everton for the title race,” said the manager. “They will be as competitive as Villa and I believe we are a close rival to Liverpool, Chelsea and Man United.

“I believe it is much tighter than everyone thinks. Everton can be involved as much as Villa. It can be six teams.

“So for now let's be quiet, focused and continue on. We are in a strong position in the Premier League, the Champions League and the FA Cup. Let's take advantage of that and let people talk. Our job is to focus on what we want to achieve.

“We have got fair criticism this year, but we have overcome that and we are now hungrier than ever. It is a good opportunity to show that at Everton."

For me, that is a dig at Villa more than anything else.
