Wenger said that every game from now until the end of the season is vital for his side if they want to finish in the top four and qualify for the Champions league.
 
Arsenal occupy fourth in the Premier League standings, but face stiff competition from the likes of Chelsea, Newcastle and Liverpool to stay there.

"For us every game is massive now until the end of the season," Wenger said. "We know that."

"It's exciting. What is terrible is to play a game of no importance. The most important thing is that we enjoy it and come out with a good performance."
 
"It's the most important game because it's the next one. Top level sport is just like that. The next game is the most important and after that it's no more or less."

"It's an important game of course but just because we have an opportunity to come back closer to Spurs and strengthen our position in fourth place. That is of course a very important target in the season."

The Gunners have come under heavy criticism over the last fortnight following a 4-0 loss to Milan in the Champions League and their elimination from the FA Cup by Sunderland.

But Wenger continues to have belief in his players and is confident they can improve.

"We had disappointing results especially in Milan," the Frenchman conceded.

"No matter what we say anyway it will always be interpreted in a negative way, it's up to us to turn it into a positive."

"It's not the easiest task, but that's part of the job. You cannot complain we are in a fantastic job we have a big game in front of us. To feel sorry for ourselves would be criminal."

"We have a good opportunity to show we have character, that we have the mental qualities to play for this club. Let's go for it."
