Arsene Wenger suggested his Arsenal side have proved their critics wrong after coming back from behind to win for the third game in a row.

Aaron Ramsey’s winner against Swansea – his 50th goal for the club – secured a fourth successive win in total, and came at the end of a testing week off the pitch, with shareholder protests at Thursday’s annual general meeting.

On the field, Arsenal have discovered their character, having come back from conceding the first goal to beat Everton and Swansea in the league, as well as Norwich in the Carabao Cup.

“Again we have showed the mental strength to come back and win the game,” said Wenger, who enjoyed victory in his 800th Premier League game.

“I’m convinced that we have proved people wrong at Everton, Norwich and today and that can only make the team stronger.”

Victory restored some cheer after the AGM, at which shareholders attempted unsuccessfully to vote out chairman Sir Chips Keswick, in protest at the way the club is being run.

And the gloom looked set to deepen when Sam Clucas slotted in a 22nd-minute goal against the run of play from Tammy Abraham’s pass to give Swansea a half-time lead. It was the first touch Swansea had managed inside Arsenal’s penalty area.

But two quick goals after the interval turned the game around, with Sead Kolasinac firing in an equaliser before cutting back from the left for Ramsey to steer in via the foot of goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski, BBC reports.
