Arsenal vice-captain Mikel Arteta believes that Tomas Rosicky can make the difference for his side on a regular basis.

Arsenal vice-captain Mikel Arteta has declared that Tomas Rosicky provides something unique in midfield that can help his side continue their fine recent form.

The Gunners are right back in contention for a top-four finish after winning their last three Premier League games.

Arteta believes that Rosicky has the quality and experience to make the difference on a regular basis, following his match-winning brace at West Bromwich Albion last weekend.

He told the club's official website: "Credit to the lads, we defended well and the goalkeeper made some really good saves. We're delighted with the points.

"Tomas has got quality and he's got a change of rhythm in the middle of the park that makes a difference. The fact that he made a difference here is massive for us.

"Now we have to keep going and keep winning. We have three games at home now so let's focus on that."

Arsene Wenger's side are two points behind Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea with seven games left to play.
