Arsenal crushed Blackburn with Robin van Persie netting a hat trick.
“It was an emphatic scoreline but the most important thing was to get the three points today. We have played some good games recently but the result gives us confidence for rest of season,” Wenger said.
“Robin van Persie had some good assists and he is an exceptional player and is deadly when you feed him in the box.
“Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is developing well, and he can assist and score as well. What is surprising to me is in September he looked junior, not mature enough, but in space of two-to-three months he is ready to be in the team.
“We have some catching up to do and the points are important. The consistency is vital for us.”
