Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey has insisted that the Gunners need to treat every game as a cup final in the final stretch of the season.

The North London outfit have nine games left to try to secure a place in the top four of the Premier League table.

"We are coming to the stage now where we need to treat every game as a cup final," Ramsey told Sky Sports News. "We need the points and hopefully we can do that.

"We have done well and got some points when others dropped them a couple of weeks ago so hopefully we can continue doing that and have a similar result as we had last season."

Tottenham Hotspur occupy fourth place ahead of Arsenal's match against Reading tomorrow.
