Celtic’s Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain celebrates<\/p>\n
Instant hero Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has told Celtic<\/a> fans he\u2019s at Parkhead to get his hands on more silverware.<\/p>\n The former Arsenal and Liverpool star made an immediate impact with the Hoops after notching a sublime stoppage time winner against Livingston on Wednesday to maintain the Premiership push.<\/p>\n Oxlade-Chamberlain<\/a> already has English Premier League and Champions League winners\u2019 medals \u2013 and he\u2019s determined to add to his collection.<\/p>\n Celts are still firmly in the hunt, six points behind leaders Hearts<\/a> and one behind Rangers<\/a> \u2013 with a game in hand on the pair. And the midfielder insisted he\u2019s on board for the trophy bid.<\/p>\n Oxlade-Chamberlain was thrilled to get off to a flier and said: “Massive. Whenever I go anywhere, I want to win. I am sure everyone in that dressing room feels the same way. That is part of my DNA and part of what motivates me for sure.<\/p>\n \u201cFirst things first, just to get out on the pitch for me there, be able to help the lads take three points, that was massive. I can just build from here.\u201d<\/p>\n Oxlade-Chamberlain is pushing to be involved against Kilmarnock on Sunday \u2013 with the top two colliding at Ibrox on the same day.<\/p>\n There was a huge swing on Wednesday night with the Hoops notching at the death and then Rangers conceding late on at Motherwell.<\/p>\n But Oxlade-Chamberlain insisted Celtic will be concentrating on taking care of their own business at Rugby Park.<\/p>\n He said: \u201cYou can’t focus too much on everyone else. The job is to win all the games. That is what we need to be looking to do every time we step on the pitch. I think that is what this football club aspires to do every time we step over the white line.<\/p>\n \u201cResults like that might go for you or they might go against you, but we just need to focus on everything that we can control, and that is our results. \u201cGames like that where we dominate a fair bit of the ball, I think we have just got to be a bit more clinical and maybe a bit more commanding and get a few more goals when you can.<\/p>\n \u201cCredit to Livingston, I thought they possessed a threat especially from set pieces. They defended really well and you can’t take anyone lightly. I think that is a good introduction for me to be able to see that early on in the league.<\/p>\n \u201cYou have got to respect everyone and when chances come up, we have to take them and be clinical. That is the only way we are going to progress here.\u201d<\/p>\n Celtic’s Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain scores <\/p>\n Oxlade-Chamberlain admitted his later heroics are a dream start and he\u2019s determined to give Hoops fans magical moments in the run in. He said: “I’d be lying if I said I didn’t have a think about that when I was on my way in.<\/p>\n \u201cThose are the moments you dream of, playing at places like this and being able to impact the game, help the team, and create moments like that.<\/p>\n \u201cIt is a dream start for me and, more importantly, it helped us get the win. It was amazing. It has been the best part of my season so far anyway!<\/p>\n \u201cI thought the atmosphere was really good, especially after the goal. I appreciate that from the fans after the goal went in and that applause. That means a lot.<\/p>\n \u201cIt is our job now to be more clinical, to put games to bed earlier if we can, score goals when we are getting those chances, and play the football that the fans want to see and go and win games with authority.<\/p>\n \u201cThat is our job as much as they play a big role to push us on. It is our job to also play the way that we need to play to inspire them.”<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/0_JS396094199.jpg\")
