Arsenal's 'Attitude And Spirit' Impress Arsene Wenger
Gunners chief notes good mentality amongst his squad this season...
08-Oct-2009 3:25:09 PM
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger thinks that the timing of the international break is unfortunate, but is looking back on the season so far with satisfaction.
Six straight wins in all competitions have shown that the Gunners have put their two defeats in Manchester behind them, and the Frenchman has been particularly pleased with the determined mentality of his players.
"The timing of this international break is bad but hopefully our players will come back without injuries," he told the Gunners' official website.
"I hope as well that we can get some players back [from injury] like Samir Nasri, like Manuel Almunia, like Lukasz Fabianski, during this break.
"Looking back at the season so far, what has impressed me most is the quality of the attitude and the spirit, the quality of our team play and the fact that even when we had disappointing results, like at Manchester United and Manchester City, the quality was still there.
"The resolve in the games afterwards was even stronger. So at the moment it looks good and we are very hopeful for the future."
