Last year Arsenal were the best team in the league, obviously they slipped up at the end and Manchester City always come on so strong. The word what they say now is that they can’t believe they lost the league from being eight points ahead.
This year everyone in the team, including the manager and the staff, has learned from their mistakes, we are stronger, we have more belief and if we go a goal down, we still have that confidence and mental strength that we can push on in games.
The league is so strong this year, anything can happen and there are 12 games to go, but the main thing is that we are right in it.
At Christmas we had a wobble, we lost two games on the bounce, which was not good, but we have won big games at home recently, which have been important.
Come the end of the season, we will see who wins it, but to play in it has been special, it has been an honour.
To go head to head with the top teams every week with the pressure, it has been so good. Me and the lads are enjoying it, long may it continue and we will see what happens.
