Is this the year in which Arsenal will go all the way? There are some signs that suggest it.
Aside from the impressive form shown by Alexis Sánchez and Mesut Özil, another player hass een shining for Wenger's crew when called upon. His name? Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.
The English wingman has already set a personal record for most goals scored, surpassing his tally of 4 during the 2011-2012 season.

Here a couple of fans' reactions to his performance.
Remember when Ibra was called the best striker in the league for scoring a penalty vs Southampton? He's now only one goal ahead of Ox #AFC

Job done, through to the next round. Good to see Jenkinson back, happy for Ox. Tottenham's season is over. We are rubbish at crossing. Bye.
