Arsenal boss Wenger: Goals will flow for Bendtner
Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is confident the goals will come for Nicklas Bendtner.
The cocky Dane missed a hatful of chances in Saturday's defeat of Burnley and is likely to lead the line tonight against Champions League opponents Porto.
Wenger told arsenal.com: "I believe he is on the way up in his game and in terms of his contribution.
“He missed some big chances on Saturday but that is needed for any young striker at some stage. He looks at why he missed the chances and gets it right in the next game. That is important for a young striker.
"I think he is really improving at the moment. That was just an isolated game. In every competition you always have something to prove and show how good you are.
"He has a good mental strength and, even if he was disappointed with the chances he missed, it will not diminish his desire and confidence to going to the next game.”
