Arsenal's manager Arsene Wenger has instructed his Danish international striker Nicklas Bendtner to continue to show the kind of performances that he displayed in yesterday's victory over West Brom in the League Cup.

  • An excellent performance from Bendtner ensured that Arsenal went through to the fourth round of the League Cup after beating West Brom on penalties. Manager Arsene Wenger has now challenged the forward to keep up his form for the rest of the season.



    “Nicklas overall had a good game for a guy who has not played for so long,” Wenger said. “He did very well on his own up front for nearly two hours. He showed heart and he has quality to come back as well.



    “I don’t question too much his confidence. For Bendtner the most important thing is to stay fit physically because he has the talent. I know him well. It’s important he is consistently present and works hard. He has top qualities.”
