Wenger: We have a point to prove

Manager Arsène Wenger says that him and his team have a point to prove to their critics when they take on Premiership champions Manchester United at the weekend.

Arsenal have come under heavy criticism from fans and press over their failure to win a trophy again this season.

The Frenchman's young team also conceded 12 goals to their nearest rivals in the top four of the domestic league and are clearly are still a team developing.

Wenger said: "We have a point to prove, definitely.

"It looks like it will be Man United who win the League but we can still delay it. We want to play for our pride and be respected for who we are, that is people who love the game they play.

"We promised ourselves on the first of January we would give everything in every game until the end of the season.

"This is where we can show we are capable to do that."
