Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is intent on showing Arsenal what they are missing when he returns to the Emirates as a Liverpool player under the Friday night lights this week.

The resurgent Reds midfielder is enjoying a rich vein of form and has admitted it his first appearance against the Gunners since his £35million summer switch will be emotional, report the Liverpool Echo .

Oxlade-Chamberlain left the Emirates after six years in the summer when he decided to embark on a new challenge at Anfield.

“It will be a special occasion for me, full of emotion I’m sure,” he said.

“We’re in good form and we’ll be going there full of confidence and looking for three points.

“I hope we can put together a good performance, fight all the way through the game and come out with the right result.”

After a difficult start to the season, Oxlade-Chamberlain has proved his worth over the past month.

He was outstanding in Sunday’s 4-0 rout of Bournemouth as he shone in an advanced central midfield role.

Asked by Liverpoolfc.com if he had hit top form, Oxlade-Chamberlain added: “Not yet, definitely not yet.

“I feel like I’m settled in now and I’m learning the ropes and my roles and responsibilities. That’s always the thing that’s hard to adapt to. Once you get comfortable with that, you can start to relax more.

“I’ve been doing better and it has been coming, but there’s definitely more to come from me. And I’ll be doing everything I can to bring that out.

“It’s nice to be a part of. It’s great that the attacking boys have been doing well. But I think you’ve got to give big credit to people like Dejan (Lovren) and Raggy (Ragnar Klavan) at the back as well.”
