Arsene Wenger is out to spoil Leicester City’s party
and the Arsenal manager said he will not hold
anything back against their unlikely title rivals when
they meet today.
Wenger said there can be no doubting Leicester’s
title credential after wins against Liverpool and then
Manchester City in consecutive games, and claimed
the two wins could prove a turning point for them in
terms of believing their Premier League dream is a
real possibility.
“They had a decisive test against Liverpool and
City,” said Wenger.
“If they had lost you would have said no they will
not do it [win the league]. But these two games
were the turning point in their season.
“Against City they had a kind of dominance in belief
in every challenge,
that special force where teams get into a zone,
where teams think: ‘we can do this.’
“The message they gave out in this game against
Manchester City, it looked like every single player
was there with belief.”
With Leicester finding so much joy on the counter-
attack, Wenger said there was no chance Arsenal
would curb their attacking instincts to deny
Leicester opportunities on the break.
“No. We will try of course to stop their counter-
attacking. But at home you have to express your
strengths and our strength is to have the ball,” he
said.
“We have to try to express our strengths and as well
try to stop them from hitting us on the break.”
