Wenger: We must stay united to survive

ARSENE WENGER yesterday issued an impassioned rallying call at Arsenal’s AGM — urging everyone at the club to stay united behind the team.

The Gunners have slowly recovered form with seven wins from the last eight games as they reached the quarter-finals of the Carling Cup and moved top of their Champions League group following what was the most testing spell of Wenger’s 15-season tenure – during which they were thumped 8-2 at Manchester United and slumped down the Premier League table.

While more tough challenges lie ahead, starting at rivals Chelsea tomorrow, Wenger remains adamant the future is bright if all Gunners fans continue to keep the faith.
