Wenger: we can handle Kaka

Wenger: we can handle Kaka

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has admitted he believes the Gunners are more than capable of defeating Milan at the San Siro in the Champions League this week, and has hinted that he knows how to stop Brazilian superstar Kaka.

  • Chelsea defender confirms decision to leave club

  • "Milan have shown in Europe that they can deal with all sorts of opposition, they can slow the game down," Wenger reflected.



    "What Milan do well is put you to their pace, and when Kaka gets the ball they can have sudden acceleration which can kill you. We will have to adapt to that because we like to play always at a high pace.



    "In Italy, what do the teams do who play against Milan? They take Kaka, get him out of the game.



    "We will play zonal and will not mark him man to man. We will be faithful to what we do usually. We will try to get him out of the game by cutting the connections with him.



    "If you kick the great players out of the game, why should people go to watch football? Great players make football a bit special, they make it art. If you are there to kill them, it is not acceptable."
