On Thursday, April 26th, London will host the first semi-final between Arsenal and Atletico. The match is scheduled for 10:05 pm.
"We must build on our strengths. Our team likes to dictate the terms of the game and own the ball. Atletico - a strong contender. Look at the standings, this is the second team in Spain. We demand from our team full dedication and a clear discipline, because Atletico does not have obvious weaknesses. He is strong in defense and in attack. So we need to show the perfect football, "- quotes Wenger official website of UEFA.
"I spent more than 200 European cups at the head of Arsenal, it's difficult to single out any one. Maybe when we knocked out Real Madrid, which had a great line-up with Ronaldo, Zidane, Beckham, Figo. And we had a young team, but we did not miss a single ball from them ".
"Mkhitaryan has not yet returned to the squad, and Elneni was eliminated until the end of the season. Maybe only against Huddersfield will play. He will be able to play for Egypt at the World Championships. But not for Arsenal ".
"At the moment I'm doing my job, I follow the routine, I focus on what I have to do every day to prepare well for the game. I'll be sorry when I'm out of work. You always doubt whether you are doing the right thing, but life is an interesting thing, you find yourself in a variety of situations. Until now, I have lived a life full of many different experiences. It used to be hard, but I always found a way out. This is just another situation that I will face ".
"I do not know if I'll take a short pause, but I will definitely continue to work. For me it has always been a matter of honor to work with complete dedication until the last day of the contract. Now I'm focused on this and I'm not ready to devote my time to anything else ".
"Going to the Champions League for 20 consecutive years is not so easy as it seemed at some stage. But, of course, it will be very unpleasant if this year we will not succeed. Therefore, we want to give absolutely all the forces without a trace, in order to have a chance to reach the final ".
"Is there an ideal farewell? I do not know. I just want to show as much as I can. I believe that our current staff deserves something special. I want to do this for their sake, to achieve something with them ".
