Go for it and say it - I've long since changed my mind since the start of the season.

knowing you can beat your rivals and them knowing you can thump them is very very key in challenging and going on to win titles. we haven't had that for years and we do now, truly believe our players are no longer scared of the rivals and i believe that was the final barrier.

drop some points here and there ...well that will happen, but one thing is for sure ...we can beat the top teams when we play them and directly stop them from winning the title, effectively putting shit back in our hands.

i believe, i believe, i believe ....as does Ozil, Kos, Sanchez, Theo, Bellerin, Cech, Monreal, Giroud, Ramsey and yes Wenget ....i believe

Letters woz rite


Let's not get too excited but we're doing the right things, winning the sorts of games you should be winning if you're going to be contenders.
Tonight was a very important win - a draw wouldn't have been a disaster but a win is a real statement of intent.

We'll know next May. There will be bumps in the road, every season is like that. But right now we're looking like contenders, while that lasts I'll be content with how things are going.

You don't need to believe in May because the final results will be in - all you'll need to do is look.
