‘We must be determined and ambitious’

Arsene Wenger says his squad must be “focused, determined and ambitious” as they enter a critical point in their season.

Over the next two weeks, the Gunners will play twice in the Premier League and host Middlesbrough in the FA Cup and Monaco in the Champions League.

The Arsenal manager says the team must not dwell on Saturday’s defeat at Tottenham and ensure they return to winning ways as soon as possible.

“What you focus on is how you can put your team in a position to respond well and quickly, and get on with your job,” Wenger said.

“We have a very important period in front of us, with the Champions League, the Premier League and the FA Cup. It is important that the team responds very well and very quickly.

“We are going into a period where we play many games and where all our squad will be highly important. [It is important that] every player is focused, determined and ambitious.”
