Brazilian Denilson believes Arsenal have learned the lessons of earlier in the campaign. "I believe we are way more resilient," the 21 year old told Arsenal TV Online.

"Since January we have been quite balanced and we have been winning the games we need."

Denilson feels a positive mental attitude has helped his development this season.

"I feel I have improved a lot and every day there is room to improve more," he said.

"Nobody is perfect and I wish I could perform brilliantly every match, but I always do my best to stay on in the team.

"I have been given the opportunity and I believe I am making the most of it.

"I know about my potential and I am still working to stay as long as possible in the first team.

"When you arrive at the training ground you have to forget everything outside and focus on your job - you have to think not only about yourself, but also of the team and the manager who is the one giving you that trust."
