Wenger confident of progress

Manager Arsène Wenger says that he's confident of progressing to the next round of the Champions League after securing a 1-1 draw away to Villareal.

The Gunners went behind in the first half but equalised in the second half after a spectacular strike from Emmanuel Adebayor.

Wenger said: "I am confident, [because of] the quality we have shown added to the mental strength and desire we have shown.

"But we know Villarreal are a good team as well, so we will be on our toes and focused at Emirates.

"We have a little chance to recover some players who are out as well.

"But before that we have a big game at Wigan and we need not to lose other players."

Arsenal look great so far and have the edge to progress to the next round ,But players must not be confident for that because confidence loses concentration.however i am very optimistic and it seems that its going to be a repeat of 2005-2006 final.
