'I repeat: Ospina is world class'

David Ospina kept us in the game on Tuesday night with a string of excellent saves to deny the likes of Edinson Cavani and Angel Di Maria.

Arsene Wenger was quick to praise the Colombian after our 1-1 draw in Paris:

on Ospina playing well…
I agree with you. In the decisive moments when he could have [conceded] a penalty, when at one down in the first half he came out with a good header. You know, I have two world-class goalkeepers, I will repeat that. I know we have enough games to give them games. But if you cannot play… you cannot keep as well two world-class goalkeepers that don’t get games.

on whether it will be hard to drop Ospina at Hull…
Look, we have the roles that the keepers know. And that’s why it’s important to have clear roles when the season starts and when that changes I inform them. But they know what the roles of the season are.

on whether it is a stated policy that Ospina will play Champions League…
I would not like to answer that question tonight, because we can always change our mind. He has the right to train, to stay in the Champions League games.
