After another loss to PSG and out of the Champions League before the final, it was an annoyed Mikel Arteta. He summed it all up by saying that “the best team is now out of the Champions League”. Coaching legend Arsene Wenger was asked if he agreed.
-I would say tonight that we have seen a different Paris Saint-Germain. Not ruled by possession and brilliant football, but ruled by refusing to concede goals and exploiting counter-attacks and set pieces. That gave them success tonight. I would say that mentally they were strong as well. When they missed a penalty, they persevered,” Wenger begins to beINsports.

-On the other hand, with Arsenal, we saw the repetition of not being able to score goals… Overall, in those two games, I’d say they were better than Arsenal, had more chances and were never really in danger, so congratulations to Paris Saint-Germain,” says Arsenal’s last manager who racked up titles for the Gunners.
Sorry, Arteta, no support to get from Wenger.
