Arsenal go to Old Trafford having won just two of their last 12 games and the striker accepts defeat at United will put them out of the Premier League title race. But Adebayor is convinced Arsenal have the character to bounce back from last night's shattering Champions League loss at Liverpool.

"We must pick ourselves up. We must keep on going," he said. "We also cannot lose sight of what we are trying to do at Arsenal. Many people did not think we would get as far as we have done this season.

"But we could so easily have been in the Champions League semi-final if things had gone for us and we are still fighting with a chance in the Premier League.

"Our season now depends on Sunday, when we will know whether we are going to be on holiday or not. That is the day we have to prove we can still win the Premier League otherwise United will have a hold on the title that will be very difficult to break.

"I believe it's still possible for us to win the League but we have to lift ourselves, keep our focus and keep our mentality strong. I think we will show that at Old Trafford, and stay in the battle for the title."
