Arsenal's Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain targets FA Cup triumph

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain says that the Arsenal players are keen on winning the FA Cup this season.

Arsenal winger Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has said that he and his teammates are determined to win the FA Cup this season.

The Gunners reached the semi-finals of the competition with a 4-1 victory over Everton at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday.

"As a professional and as a winner, you always want to win things, that goes for every member of our team," The Mirror quotes the 20-year-old as saying. "There's no doubt it's in the back of your mind because all you want to do is win. This is an opportunity for us, we are one step closer.

"Every step, every round you go through, you get that little bit closer and you get hungrier and hungrier for the end result. You watch FA Cup games at Wembley when you are growing up and that's where you want to be. That's the stage and that's what it's all about. It's the first time we've been there since I've been at Arsenal, so it's definitely a big thing for us.

"But we can't get too carried away. It's a game of football and we can't let that occasion affect us too much. We just have to approach like we do every other game. We want to be excited but approach it very professionally, calm and cool as we can. Hopefully we can get through and get to the final."

Arsenal will take on Wigan Athletic for a place in the final.
