Wenger refusing to give up

Arsene Wenger admitted Arsenal will have to make 'the
impossible, possible' if they are to overcome a first-leg
humbling by Bayern Munich in the last 16 of the UEFA
Champions League.
The Emirates Stadium club suffered a 3-1 defeat in
north London through goals from Toni Kroos, Thomas
Muller and Mario Mandzukic, with only Lukas Podolski
responding.
And Arsenal, who were dumped out of the FA Cup by
lower league Blackburn Rovers at the weekend, are
now facing an uphill task to recover at Bayern in the
second leg on 13 March.
"Let us not hide the truth, it will be very difficult,"
Wenger, whose own future has been questioned, told
Sky Sports after seeing his side beaten by the
Bundesliga leaders.
"But we will try to make the impossible, possible.
"We have to go there and play completely like we play
at home. We have to try to change the score. The third
goal makes it very difficult but we have to try."
Wenger had spent his pre-match press conference
angrily responding to criticism and reports about his
own future, claiming, 'you will miss me when I am
gone'.
It has become a regular occurrence for Arsenal to be
scrutinised in an inconsistent campaign but the
Frenchman has indicated he could relish a siege
mentality ahead of the second leg against Bayern.
"We are the underdogs - you just need to read the
English press to understand that," Wenger said on
Arsenal's official website.
"We have pressure, because we want to do well and we
want to win. I believe that whether you are favourites
or underdogs, what counts is to play well, make a good
pass when you have the ball and defend well when you
don't have the ball. All the rest, in our job, you have to
take a distance from it.
"What is important is that when you play to win a
competition, at some stage you have to play a big
team.
"If I listen to your questions, we are not favourites but I
trust our quality, our spirit and our mental strength."
