John Obi Mikel says victory over Marseille has Chelsea primed for their clash with Arsenal.

Midfield enforcer Mikel believes the performance proves the Double winners are well and truly over last week's Carling Cup exit at the hands of Newcastle and Saturday's Premier League defeat at Manchester City.

He said: "I am looking forward to the game against Arsenal. It will be a great game on Sunday and hopefully we can take three points from them.

"Marseille were a good team. In the second half they showed us they can also play.

"But I think we were always in control of the game and our Champions League experience showed.

"Sunday will be a different game, especially as Arsenal keep the ball well."
