Arsene Wenger knows that Arsenal have a very tall order to come back from four goals down against AC Milan on Tuesday, but after beating two top-quality teams like Tottenham and Liverpool he is feelink much more confident that the Gunners can make up the difference.
Yesterday he was reminded that of Arsenals previous 19 European home games at the Emirates they have won nearly a THIRD of them by 4 goals or more. “I love these statistics!” Wenger said. “We can score, we can have a good edge in our game, so let’s just go for it.“We have it all to win because the result is written before we turn up, but we can change it.
“Nothing would be fatal if Milan score. If we have the attitude we had against Spurs then nothing is fatal, so we will just go for it.”
But the Frenchman knows it isn’t going to be easy, but with Arsenal’s new-found confidence he refuses to believe it is “impossible”.
“We will give absolutely everything to win,” he continued. “We know the statistics are against us, but you can realise the impossible when you don’t know it is impossible. Let’s ignore that and just go for it.
“Yes it would be his greatest comeback because we have never lost 4-0 away before in a Champions League game. It was under special circumstances, but we were placid and have a lot to answer for and to respond to in the second leg.
“Everyone expects us to be out, but we are not yet, we are still in there.”
Everyone was writing Arsenal off after the first leg, but there is now a growing belief that they can do it. I bet Milan will have watched these last two games and must be just a little bit worried themselves…..
