Cesc Fabregas insists that Arsenal will not be thinking about potential opponents in the Champions League knock-out stages, even after a convincing victory that leaves the Gunners needing just a single point from their two remaining fixtures to qualify from Group H.
Arsenal ran out 4-1 winners over reigning Dutch champions AZ in a vintage display of fluid passing and ruthless finishing. The captain helped himself to two goals but, despite being pleased with his team's performance, was quick to point out that they are still yet to qualify.
"It is not definite so we'll have to keep working until the end," he told Sky Sports.

Arsenal ran out 4-1 winners over reigning Dutch champions AZ in a vintage display of fluid passing and ruthless finishing. The captain helped himself to two goals but, despite being pleased with his team's performance, was quick to point out that they are still yet to qualify.
"It is not definite so we'll have to keep working until the end," he told Sky Sports.
"Even if we had qualified today we would have wanted to win and have gone for the six points. That is our mentality."
The Spain midfielder was also keen to stress that Arsenal's fine early-season form will count for nothing if come the end of the campaign they have failed to break a trophy drought which dates back to 2005.
"It's just the beginning of the season, nothing is done, we want to keep going until the end," Fabregas sated.
"I'll feel it is something special when we win something.
"We want to win and if we win something at the end we will say we had a good year.
"We can still do better so we'll try to improve in the next few games."
