Last week against Burnley the Arsenal striker Nicklas Bendtner missed “chance after chance” (Wenger’s words), but the French manager was always certain that his much-maligned hitman would stay confident and find his scoring boots again.

Wenger said: “I told you how football can change for a player in three days. It goes quickly up and quickly down. And it shows you as well that he has not lost the confidence that he came back tonight with good focus and with the same belief. It is one of his strengths. His confidence level remains relatively stable.” Read the full article here

The Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger is a little worried ahead of the international break as it is a rare event for all his players to return to the club uninjured.

The Arsenal striker Nicklas Bendtner was taken off during the game against Tottenham two weeks ago, and it was thought that he would be out for about four weeks, but two weeks later it has still not improved.

Arsenal’s injury list always seems to be on the cusp of being reduced to zero, when another few problems arise. Today it is the turn of Gael Clichy and Nicklas Bendtner to join the long-term list.

“We have some bad news because Bendtner was quite seriously injured and on top of that we lost Gael Clichy with a back injury that was not expected,” Wenger said. Read the full article here

A full debut was given to Craig Eastmond, and Fran Merida topped a good performance with a fantastic goal. The winner from Nicklas Bendtner was a lesson in passing as the ball was touched by just about every Arsenal player in the build-up. Read the full article here
