"We are going from strength to strength" Wenger told ESPN.

"We have the belief and the potential is there in this team whatever anyone else thinks. Overall I'm very happy today, it was a tight start but we controlled the game after that and could have scored more goals in the end. In patches we were at our best but maybe we eased off at the end"

One disappointment from the game was an injury to midfielder Abou Diaby, but Wenger was unsure what damage there was.

He added "I don't know, it looks like a calf injury, it's too early to say. He just kept saying that he couldn't put his foot on the ground."

Goals from Cesc Fabregas, Andrei Arshavin plus two Wolves own goals helped Arsenal to second in the Premier League and make it 13 games unbeaten in all competitions.
