Cesc Fabregas insists Arsenal were not at their best, despite demolishing Wolves 4-1 at Molineux.

The hosts began the game well and caused the Gunners problems. But Arsenal went ahead when Ronald Zubar deflected in Eduardo's shot, and another own goal from Jody Craddock made it two.

Fabregas continued his fine scoring run just before half-time, and Andrei Arshavin made it four - before Craddock headed in a late consolation for Wolves.

The Gunners captain told ESPN: "It was disappointing to concede from a set-piece like that. They played well. We were not at our best but still managed to score four."

Robin van Persie, who admitted Arsenal are hoping for a draw between Chelsea and Manchester United on Sunday, agreed with Fabregas' assessment.

"The first 20-25 minutes, Wolves were really pushing - and up to the goal, they were really committed. Then we scored another one - and the game was over," he said.
