Arsene Wenger revelling at prospect of exciting title race

With Carl Jenkinson on-loan at West Ham until the end of the season, our Arsenal punters believe Debuchy should stay until the summer. “He looks like he’s always been here with us and he became important inside the team”. But you can not rule us out.

‘You have to be consistent in your work, consistent in your performances because if not then you might not have as many games as you would like, less games you play then less chances to have a clean sheet’. We keep working every day, game by game, and you can see that every game is very hard in this league because all the teams have the squads they need to compete, and in every game we need to really compete to make sure that we win points and so far, we are in a very good position.

Arsenal begin the second half of their Premier League title challenge with the visit of struggling Newcastle United this weekend. We have chance and we want to fight for it.

News Wenger is looking at bringing in some fresh faces in January will be music to the ears of Arsenal fans, as they begin 2016 at the top of the Premier League.

Three times Wenger has failed to win the title despite leading the pack on January 1 but he added: “Maybe when we were top these three times because the other teams did not play at full power and we did”.

“I think he plays in a position and style of football that suits him well”, Wenger went on to explain as he spoke of Ozil’s resurgence.

Lawrenson told BBC Sport: “Arsenal resumed normal service after their 4-0 defeat away to Southampton on Boxing Day with a comfortable 2-0 home win over Bournemouth two days later”.

“Ozil was the focal point of our team”, Wenger said after goals from the German and defender Gilberto, from an Ozil corner, clinched a crucial victory against Bournemouth that sent Arsenal one point clear at the top of the Premier League.

“We are mature and the most important thing is at the end of the season to know we ‘ve given everything”.

“My father has a book where ever since I started playing games, he wrote down the games that I played in”.
