Upbeat Wenger insists Arsenal’s moment has come

ARSENE WENGER insists the “moment has come” for his Arsenal side as the Gunners prepare to face Premier League leaders Chelsea at the Emirates Stadium tomorrow.

The Gunners – who have a match in hand on their title rivals – will be looking to close an eight-point gap on the Blues after slipping further off the pace in the wake of last weekend’s lacklustre defeat at Sunderland.

Confidence within Wenger’s squad remains high after they returned to winning ways with a 2-0 win over Standard Liege in midweek to book a safe passage through to the knockout stages of the Champions League.
