Arsenal playmaker Santi Cazorla believes that the Gunners will have a better mentality if they manage to spark an early winning run next season.
The Spaniard has admitted that losing matches during the 2012-13 campaign dampened the team's spirits, but Cazorla is confident that the Gunners will show improvements when August comes around.
"When the team doesn't win and we don't get the results we want, the collective confidence does drop a little and that is natural," Cazorla told next month's edition of the club's official magazine.
"Now we have put in a spectacular run-in and you can see the difference in mentality. We have great players. I am sure next season we will be a better team and improve. Next season we hope we can be even better and win trophies and the supporters can enjoy it, that is what Arsenal really wants."
Meanwhile, reports have claimed that club officials have flown to Spain to finalise a deal for Real Madrid forward Gonzalo Higuain.
