Arsenal: 5 Reasons The Gunners Can Still Win The Title
2. Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain Could Be Their Secret Weapon
When you have a squad of a reasonable size its easy to forget about all of the options that are available within the squad. Arsenal have certainly hit by injuries this season with Theo Walcotts being a particular blow and Aaron Ramsays problems are far from ideally given how well he has played this season. However, its often said when one player gets injured it creates an opportunity for somebody else. That somebody else in this case may well be Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain. Oxlade-Chamberlain ianother player that has suffered with problems this season, and will be hoping that they are now behind him. The former Southampton man made a winning return to the side with both goals against Crystal Palace in a 2-0 league win. Of course, this story takes another twist because Wenger decided to use him in a central midfield role, a position that many people think he will eventually settle into. In terms of this season, he could be a secret weapon for the club especially if he can keep finishing as well as he did against Palace.
