Arsenal midfielder Granit Xhaka says they go to Newcastle today full of confidence.

The Gunners meet Newcastle on the back of a midweek win against Chelsea.

Xhaka said, If I'm honest it's crazy how quickly football can change. After the four games we didn't win maybe confidence was a little bit down, but then you have a great chance to play against Chelsea and show a reaction and I think that reaction was very good.

Straight away, the next day you see the confidence is back but it is just the first step after the four games we didn't win. Hopefully we can do that for the next four games as well."

On adjusting to a move attacking role, Xhaka also said: It was not easy for me in the beginning when I needed to change my position. I had never played there before in my career, but I had a really good conversation with Mikel (Arteta) about it.

Step by step and game by game everything got better. I started to score and started to get assists and show I can play a different role."
