Arsenal on Sunday edged closer to securing a Champions league ticket at the Etihad stadium after they played a thrilling 2-2 draw with Manchester City.
Speaking after the game, Arsenal Coach Arsene Wenger said:
"I was surprised by the intensity of City's start. We expected an intense game but they really came out with strong pressure. The good thing is that we absorbed it and we've shown good character today.
"Man City today decided to give a big present to Pellegrini in his last home game - they were on fire. When it was 1-1 it didn’t look like we would score but when we were 2-1 down we looked hungry and dangerous again. The players wanted not to lose.
"When it was 2-1 I wanted to bring on Cazorla to get greater fluency, but at 2-2 I went for a bit more security because they had a number of attacking players on, like Bony and Sterling.
"We have to finish the job now in the league against Villa - we want to finish the season with a win at home."
