Arsenal boss Wenger: We can beat Monaco

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger believes his side can beat Monaco in the Champions League on Tuesday evening.

Wenger’s side lost the first leg of their last-16 tie with Monaco 3-1 at the Emirates stadium back in February but the French boss believes his side can overturn the result and progress to the quarter-finals.

“The statistics are against us,” Wenger told ESPN. “The result in the first leg is against us. We are conscious about that.

“But no matter how big the percentage is, we have to give absolutely everything to make the stats lie, that is our desire and belief that we can do it.

“We want to give everything to have the greatest performance on the pitch. If we did not believe we could do it, we would not be here.”

Arsenal last qualified for the quarter-finals in 2010.
