Wenger: Attacking Football Best Way To Win Trophies
-
Arsene Wenger has reiterated his belief that attacking football is the best way to win trophies.
Arsenal have been in and off form this season. They drew a blank at Fulham and dropped three points due to a lethargic, disinterested, and uninspiring performance; yet the Gunners also destroyed Fenerbahce, Blackburn Rovers, Sheffield United and FC Twente with some scintillating movement.
Head coach Arsene Wenger believes the best way to lift silverware, whether in domestic competition or in Europe, is to favour attacking football over defensive.
Wenger is reported to have told journalists: "I believe it is the best way to win trophies... If you get bored the whole year and lift a trophy at the end of it and then be happy for three days then for me it is worse to do that. It cannot last. Who plays the best football? Brazil. So why should there be an opposition to that style of play?
"We went to Fenerbache, who have never lost a Champions League game at home, with a midfield of Under-21 players," he said.
"You listen to the clubs in Italy and in France and Arsenal are their model," he added, "We have to be strong enough to keep the way we play and we can win the Premier League and the Champions League."
