And he feels he could have a big role to play at the Emirates going forward, saying: "From what I've seen so far, I don't think that's unreasonable to think".
"All the games the same thing". "It shows how close we all are and it has been a unusual season".
Wenger's opposite number Claude Puel lamented his side's inferior "clinical edge" to the Gunners after squandering the best chances in a tight first period. In this championship the teams played among themselves in the first round, then the duel in London ended with the victory of the "Gunners" 3: 1.
