McClaren gets Wenger backing

ARSENAL manager Arsene Wenger believes Steve McClaren will bounce back from being sacked after England failed to qualify for Euro 2008.

Wenger and McClaren will come face to face in under a fortnight when Arsenal and Dutch side FC Twente clash in the Champions League third qualifying round.

McClaren has escaped the pressures of English football to take charge of Twente, and yesterday’s draw in Nyon amazingly threw the former England coach straight back into the spotlight.
