Arsenal goalkeeper Petr Cech says the return to fitness of some of the club’s best players will see them win the Premier League.
The Gunners were impressive in beating Manchester City 2-1 at the Emirates on Monday night, with that win meaning they have been beaten just once in their last 11 games.
Arsene Wenger’s men have put together that streak without a host of key men, including Jack Wilshere, Mikel Arteta, Santi Cazorla, Danny Welbeck, Tomas Rosicky and Francis Coquelin.
And Cech believes their efforts in light of those injuries prove they are more than capable of lifting the title in May.
He told BBC Sport: “The squad is very strong and once we have everybody available, the manager can use every player the way he likes. That will be to our advantage and we’ll be able to go all the way.
“We’ve been through the season with plenty of problems.
“Everything isn’t going as smoothly as we would like it to. We can’t avoid injuries – sometimes you have more, sometimes you have less – but we showed that even with the unlucky injuries at the moment that we manage to win games.
“I believe we will benefit from players coming back into the team, once they are fit.
“The season is long and anything can happen. But if we stay where we are until March or April, then we have the chance to win the league.”
