Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has thanked the Arsenal fans for their support following tonight's win over Middlesbrough.
Gunners supporters slammed the playing group after last week's 3-0 defeat at Crystal Palace but Oxlade-Chamberlain hopes a much more passionate performance to beat Boro 2-1 at the Riverside Stadium has helped rectify that.
The attacking midfielder says it is firmly in the minds of the players to fight for the Arsenal faithful as they chase a top-four finish this season.
"I just want to say one more thing - in recent weeks it's not gone well for us and to see our fans travel all the way up here on a Monday night means everything, for them to stand by us," he said after the win on Teesside.
"It was only right that we could get them three points so we'd like to thank them.
"Look, it's a massive club and that's one thing that as players it's an honour to play for.
"To see them come all the way up here and support us after a tough time means everything and we need to keep fighting for them."
Alexis Sanchez scored with a sublime free-kick in the 42nd minute before Alvaro Negredo replied for Boro five minutes into the second half but a 71st-minute strike from Mesut ozil won it for the North Londoners who returned to sixth place on the Premier League table.
