| Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain says Arsenal can overcome any problems thrown at them |
The Gunners suffered a shock 4-0 defeat by Southampton on Boxing Day but bounced back with a 2-0 win over Bournemouth yesterday to go top of the table.
Arsene Wenger has battled with numerous injury problems so far this season, yet the Gunners still sit top at the halfway stage.
Arsenal's injury concerns also made for a shaky Champions League qualification; only progressing through an impressive display away at Olympiakos in their final group game to set up a meeting with Barcelona in the knockout stage.
But despite Arsenal's turbulent season with injuries, Oxlade-Chamberlain believes it won't get in the way of their bid to be crowned Premier League champions.
"We're in a strong position now, it's where we would like to be," Oxlade-Chamberlain told the club's official website.
"There have been some hiccups along the way and I'm sure there will be a few more but we need to build on this half of the season and go into the New Year positively and in the right manner.
"You need to build momentum. It's all about getting the right results and as many results as possible from here.
"From day to day, we need to turn it around if we have a bad result. We need to turn that around and we got the right result.
"We know we're capable of winning games. The boss said to us that the team that lost at Southampton is no different to the one that beat Manchester City at home.
"We'll hopefully get some injured players back soon and that will boost us again, but the boys have been really good so far. We need to keep that going and today was a good step and a good way to end the year."
