Arsene Wenger reckons the spirit among his Arsenal squad is in perfect shape for going on a good run and winning the Premier League title this season.
The Gunners manager is looking to end a six-season wait for a trophy and knows his side are lucky to still be in the Premier League title race after their indifferent start to the season.
Arsenal have lost four out of their opening 15 games, and three out of seven at home, yet still sit third in the table. Wenger knows this is not the typical Arsenal form, but he has been struggling with a host of injuries to key players so far. The Premier League best odds suggest they can push on from here.
They still have a tough run in the Premier League and Champions League in the coming weeks, but Wenger is confident if the squad keep focus they can be successful this season.
"We are in a strong position in every single competition - that means overall the attitude is right, the spirit of the squad is right," he said.
"I am confident we have the needed quality, so let's continue to improve."
One key component of Arsenal's successes this season, and a key addition to the squad, is striker Marouane Chamakh. The Moroccan has scored ten goals since arriving during the summer and the Premier League betting predictions indicate he will be able to net some more.
He has added a new dimension to Arsenal's attacking and has set himself a target of between 15-20 goals, which would be a great aid to the club's ambitions of winning the Premier League title.
