 | Wenger: 'We will get serious to Europa League.'25-11-2015 |
The manager of Arsenal, Arsene Wenger proved that he does not rule out the possibility his team fail to skip the group stage of the Champions League. The Frenchman has promised that his players will deal with serious professionalism, if they need to continue their participation in the other tournament – under the auspices of UEFA Europa League.
Prerequisites for such an outcome not lacking-the Gunners are third in their group F with three points, as there is also the last Dinamo Zagreb. It is precisely against the Croats is the next match for the Londoners, who will try to catch up with the leaders Olympiakos and Bayern, who have nine points. However, if they do not deal with the mission and remain third in the spring, will continue with the match from 1/16-finals in the Europa League.
'We're going to get serious about this tournament. However, we have not dropped out of the Champions League.', said Wenger.
'I believe that the situation is a little bit exaggerated in England. At the moment we play matches on Wednesday and Saturday. I don't see why the quarter-cycle Sunday is different.'
'If Bayern didn't win its match against Olympiakos, they can still finish second. Have a visit to Zagreb, where the loss is not excluded. In front of his audience Dynamo always wants to win. I don't know how anyone could think that they will lose there deliberately to kick us out.', added the Frenchman.
