Arsenal have proved more than capable of beating the top teams this season but they must continue this against the lesser lights of the Premier League to maintain their momentum. The Gunners hauled themselves back into the championship race when they came from behind to win 2-1 at Chelsea.

"We showed a different attitude and that is what we want to do from now on," Fabregas told Arsenal TV Online.

"We have a new momentum, but if we do not do the same, then it is not worth it.

"We want to be competitive again in every game and see where we can go until the end of the season.

"We have shown we can do it, to beat the big teams, so we can have no excuse with not doing it against the rest of the teams.

"We have to be proud of what we did against Chelsea because we are a young side and have had a lot of criticism."
