Wenger Tells His Players They Must Win The Rest Of Their Games

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has told his players that they cannot afford to loose another game this season if they are to stand a chance of securing a Champions League spot next year.

The Gunners are four points behind rivals Totenham who are currently occupying fourth in the table, a position which Arsenal must snatch from them if they wish to be contenders in the biggest tournament in European club football, carrying on a 16 year run of involvement.

This will not be an easy accomplishment from Arsenal, especially due to the form of Totenham winger Gareth Bale who is currently joint fourth on the Premier League top goalscorers table with 13 goals after scoring both in the sides 2-1 victory over Newcastle on Saturday.

Wenger said: "We were under pressure to win, and of course we could not afford to drop points".

"I said that after the Chelsea game, we are in a situation where we cannot drop points any more. No matter where we play, we need the three points."

Looking back at the Sunderland game, Wenger added: "We lacked efficiency in our finishing, we didn't finish what we created. But we create, and that's positive".

"Sometimes, it's like that. If you look at our games, we score five, seven and suddenly sometimes none, because maybe this team is developing and learning and needs to be a bit more efficient."
