Wenger fury as Gunners pay for gaffes

Two games in, and Arsenal’s Champions League campaign is already in complete disarray following a hopelessly inept display that left Arsene Wenger’s side still looking for their first point in the competition and their prospects of reaching the knockout stages hinging on the outcome of the looming, back to back fixtures with Bayern Munich.

A disastrous defensive performance, capped by a shocking error by keeper David Ospina, included after Wenger opted to rest Petr Cech, condemned Arsenal to a second successive defeat in Group F following the opening game loss at Dinamo Zagreb.

“It is still possible of course to qualify but it is difficult to swallow losing a game like that,” said Wenger last night.
