London: Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger said a Top 4 finish and a place in the Champions League is a realistic target as his team take on West Ham today.

But the 67-year-old Frenchman admitted his team — presently sixth and seven points off the Champions League places with a game in hand on fourth-placed Manchester City — have their work cut out. "I tell myself to finish as high as possible... It (finishing in the top four) is a good challenge but I think it’s perfectly possible," said Wenger. "Certainly for 20 years I have done it and it looked always like it's nothing. Suddenly it becomes important, so I am quite pleased that people realise that it’s not as easy as it looks," Wenger added.
