Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain: 'We have a point to prove against Chelsea'

Arsenal winger Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain feels that his side need to show they can compete against the big teams in the Premier League when they face Chelsea on Sunday.

Arsenal winger Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has claimed that he and his teammates have a "point to prove" against Chelsea when they face the Blues on Sunday.

The Gunners were hammered 6-0 by Jose Mourinho's side in their clash at Stamford Bridge last season, and the 21-year-old is adamant his side have to perform better in big games this campaign.

Oxlade-Chamberlain told reporters: "We do understand what happened there last season. Maybe we have got a point to prove there, we know this year we have got to step up in the big games and get some results in them.

"We're really looking forward to that game and I definitely think we can go there with confidence.

"We give Chelsea the respect they deserve – but, at the same time, I have belief in my teammates and we believe in ourselves to be able to go to a place like Chelsea and set the tempo and hopefully take control of the game."

Arsenal are currently fourth in the Premier League with 10 points from their six matches.
