Arsene Wenger praises "committed and united" Arsenal performance

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger hails his side's "committed and united" performance as they overcome West Ham United with a 2-1 victory in the Premier League.

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has praised his side's "committed and united performance" as they overcame West Ham United 2-1 in the Premier League.

The Gunners took all three points at Upton Park as goals from Santi Cazorla and Danny Welbeck were enough to cancel out an effort from Cheikhou Kouyate, while Hammers midfielder Alex Song also had a standout volley suspectly disallowed for offside.

"We had a committed and united performance. The keeper made some good saves. We knew we needed to be good in the air today," said Wenger, according to BBC Sport.

"I didn't know why Alex Song's goal didn't stand, I thought it would. We scored a good second goal and had many opportunities to score another. It didn't come and at 2-1 I thought the last 30 minutes would be difficult.

"We did dig deep. It is down to consistency and we are slowly getting there."

The win sees the Gunners sitting in fifth position in the Premier League table.
