Arsenal forward Lukas Podolski has revealed that team spirit at the London club is high as they look to press on with their Premier League title challenge.

The Gunners are leading the charge for the title this season, having made a strong start to the campaign, with the German striker stating that he has never played in a side with such a close bond.

"We have a good team and we have a lot of fun together," Podolski told the club's official website.

"I have never been in a team like this before; we stay together, we have fun and we have played a good season so far.

"It has been really good and I hope we stay on top until the end of the season."

Podolski joined Arsenal from German club FC Koln in 2012.
