The Gunners are four points behind fourth-placed Tottenham Hotspur after their 1-0 win at the Stadium of Light on Saturday.
A Santi Cazorla goal was enough to secure the win, and Wenger admits that the three points were all that mattered in the race for the coveted top four.
"We were under pressure to win, and of course we could not afford to drop points," the Frenchman said. "I said that after the Chelsea game, we are in a situation where we cannot drop points any more. No matter where we play, we need the three points."
Reflecting on the narrow win against Sunderland the 63-year-old added: "We lacked efficiency in our finishing, we didn't finish what we created. But we create, and that's positive.
"Sometimes, it's like that. If you look at our games, we score five, seven and suddenly sometimes none, because maybe this team is developing and learning and needs to be a bit more efficient."
