The Gunners' 2-1 win at Swansea on Saturday extended a club-record run of consecutive away victories to 12 and put them two points clear at the top of the Premier League table.

Wilshere believes the current sequence show there is a new edge about Arsenal this season.
The England star said: "We started that towards the end of last season.
"We knew we had to win games because we had to get that fourth spot.

“I think we showed a different side to our game and hopefully we can continue that”

"We were going towards the end of the season, knowing that because we had dropped points earlier in the season, we had to win games.

"I think we have continued that into this season and that's vital in this league.

"You saw that Manchester United and Manchester City slipped up and I remember a few years ago when I broke into the team, when they lost, we lost. We failed to capitalise, but this time we did, which is nice.
"I think we showed a different side to our game and hopefully we can continue that."
