Manager Arsène Wenger has praised striker Carlos Vela for his finishing ability.
The youngster will feature in tonight's match against Fenerbahce and Wenger is confident that the young Mexican will make a difference.
Wenger said: "Vela is one of the answers. Carlos is an outstanding striker, he will be a top goal-scorer and is one of the best finishers I have seen.
"He is 19-years-old and playing at a top, top club. We don't believe that he needs to improve his finishing or his technical quality, we just need him to adapt to the combative side of the English side of the game.
"He is responding very well at the moment and it will give him something more and make him a top-class striker."

He's getting him ready for the Man U match. As a loss/draw in the champions league wouldn't affect Arsenals position much.

He will be a fantastic player. But not left as the lone striker. What were you thinking Arsene ?
