Former Arsenal captain Gilberto Silva says the club's Invincibles team boasted a locker room of winners.

The Gunners are only the second side in English history to go through a top flight season unbeaten following their success in 2003/04.

"There was a character in the team where everyone just thought about winning," he told Good Morning Breakfast.

"One important thing I always mention was that the year before we had so much frustration from losing that season to Manchester United.

"It was really hard for us to accept that because the mentality was to win all the games.

"We were all winners so it was tough to accept.

"We came back the next season and managed that (winning the title)."
