Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger remains confident his side can reach boiling point over the next 10 games and force their way back into the Premier League title race.
The Gunners head to Sunderland on Saturday in seventh place after five draws have left them nine points behind leaders Chelsea, who are away to Manchester United on Sunday.
Only a dramatic late recovery, with two goals in the final two minutes, secured victory in the Champions League at Anderlecht on Wednesday night.
Wenger accepts his side need to add an efficiency to their game at both ends of the pitch, but feels it will all come together over the next few weeks.
“The main thing is there, the attitude and the quality, but water boils at 100 Degrees and not at 99, so we have to add that degree,” said Wenger.
“I look at how we can be more efficient, that is my only worry.
“We dominate our games. It is just that when we have a weaker moment we pay for it, which is why we have to produce more effort defensively as a team.
“If we are more efficient in 10 games time then we will be in a much better position, so let’s start tomorrow (at Sunderland).”
