Submitted by tribalfootball.com on Fri, 03/12/2010 - 07:40

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger admits victory over Porto has rescued goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski.

The Poland goalkeeper, criticised for his display in the first leg, has been saved from a guilt-trip because Arsenal cruised through in the Champions League second leg on Tuesday.

Wenger replied: "Yes, it would have had long-term mental consequences for him had we gone out.

"He could have felt, 'Ah, they blame me.' even if it wasn't true.

"So I think the result on Tuesday has helped him to recover. He is a top-class keeper and one day you will see I'm right."
