Wenger relishing tough week

Arsenal boss Arsène Wenger has revealed he is relishing the tough week ahead.

Arsenal host Fenerbache in the Champions League on Wednesday and Manchester United in the Premier League on Saturday.

Victories in these two games will put the disappointment of the past few weeks behind them.

The Gunners dropped five Premier League points in their last two matches and threw away two points in the final couple of minutes against Tottenham Hotspur on Wednesday.

Arsenal also suffered a shock 2-1 defeat against Stoke City on Saturday.

Plenty of Arsenal fans are calling for Wenger's head but the manager knows that he can hush the criticism with victories in these two high-profile games.

“We have a Champions League game on Wednesday and then Manchester United on Saturday lunchtime,” the Frenchman told the club's official website.

“There are no better games in which to come back, give confidence and show our quality.”
