It has been a mixed season for the Gunners as they struggled at the start of the campaign with injuries to a host of key players that impacted their form and left them way off the pace in terms of challenging for the league title.

But since the turn of the year they have been one of the form teams in Europe and had been tipped by many in the media to pose a threat to Chelsea for the title and although the North London outfit came up short, there is genuine belief among the players and fans that a first league championship in over a decade is not too far away.

Arsenal face West Brom at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday in the final game of the league season before entertaining Aston Villa in the FA Cup final six days later and Mertesacker wants to end the campaign on a high by winning both games.
