Arsenal's Manager confident of Champions League progress

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is confident his side can make the Champions League last 16 after setting up a must-win final group game against Olympiakos.

The Gunners' 3-0 win over Dinamo Zagreb at Emirates Stadium on Tuesday, coupled with Bayern Munich's 4-0 thrashing of Olympiakos, means a 2-0 victory or any win by scoring three goals will send Arsenal through to the knockout phase.


Wenger said: "We had to come out of this game with a chance and we have done that - now let's make right what we didn't do right until now."

Arsenal were beaten 3-2 by Olympiakos at home and are in a perilous position after losing their away games to Dinamo Zagreb and Bayern.

Wenger added: "We had to do our job and Bayern had to do theirs and we both did our jobs well. We now have a chance - how big a chance I don't know but I believe we can do it."

Arsenal have lost all three of their previous Champions League games away to Olympiakos, but all in the final group game when qualification had already been assured.

 In my own view I think it will be the same old story like last season where they were bundled out of the Champions League in the early stages. Beating Olympiakos at home and with a big Goal difference it’s going to be realistically impossible.
