Arsene Wenger's side has drifted out of the Premier League title race after failing to win any of their last five matches amid reports that there is unrest in the Emirates Stadium camp.

However, the Brazilian said: "I have said before sometimes if something does not work well, like the last few weeks with our results, some people try to create problems.

"I am sure that at the moment in Arsenal we don't have any problems in the dressing room. There is support for everybody."

The 31-year-old still believes the club can win some silverware this term, adding: "We have a chance still in both competitions.

"A few weeks ago we were five points clear and now it is not a comfortable situation as there are only seven games left but we do have a chance.

"The most important thing is to win our own games. If we win our seven games then we have a chance but we cannot afford to slip up anymore.

"Talking about my future, I will see what will happen. At the moment I cannot say anything. I am concentrating on working hard for Arsenal and trying to help.

"If I have the opportunity to play or be in the squad I will help as it is an important moment for us. I am working very hard at the training ground to get into the team.

"I know it has been difficult because the team has been playing well. I won't give up."
