We can win the league, the mood around the club is much better says Szczesny

Wojciech Szczesny is confident Arsenal will end their eight year trophy drought in 2014 by winning the Premier League title.

The 23-year-old joined Arsenal in 2006 – a year after the Gunners won their last trophy and is not concerned by the fact that Liverpool are now top of the pile approaching the halfway point in the season.

The Polish international knows the last eight years have been hard for the club’s fans and is determined to make sure this is the year the supporters’ agony ends.

Szczesny said: ‘I’m very positive.

‘We want to win trophies this time.

‘The mood around the club is much better than it was at the start of the season. People maybe didn’t believe in this team as much as they do now.
‘Our confidence is still quite high and we believe that we can go and do it this year. We’re looking forward to proving that.

‘I don’t think the belief within the group was ever missing. This year we’ve just been more consistent.

‘That’s made all the difference. We have to keep it going.

‘Winning the first trophy is so important. We’ve been missing a trophy for quite a few years and that’s not good enough for such a big club.

‘But we enjoy the pressure because we believe that we can be the team that will deliver for the fans and for the club.’

Arsenal take on West Ham at Upton Park on Boxing Day and they then face Newcastle, Aston Villa, Cardiff, Fulham and Southampton before the end of January.

Szczesny believes the next three may well decide who tops the table come May.

‘This Christmas period is going to have a huge bearing on the season,’ he added.
