Arsene wenger on his fine moments

The Gunners lost to Chelsea on Saturday, but they have the chance to return to winning ways when Olympiakos visit the Emirates Stadium in the Champions League on Wednesday.

Wenger, who was appointed Arsenal manager 16 years ago this week, is backing his players to respond positively to their setback against the European champions.

"They are still down of course, but we have a Champions League game in front of us at home and we want to put things right," he declared.

"There were a lot of positives in that game as well, what was not good is easy to correct.
"It is about how we respond. I am impressed by the mentality of my team, but the mentality is as well about how you respond to disappointment.

Arsene Wenger has been facing a couple of criticisms now and then but has then been very strong and confident on his philosphies.
