Arsenal boss Wenger likens Swansea striker Michu to Bergkamp

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has likened Swansea City striker Michu to Dennis Bergkamp.

Wenger is acutely aware that Michu is a player well capable of ending their record run which has brought 11 consecutive wins on the road.

He said: "I see him like a little bit, position-wise, like a Bergkamp, more than an up-front striker.

"They can play with both [strikers] because Michu's the kind of striker who is a midfielder as well. He can play both positions, that's why they are 4-4-1-1 or you can call that a 4-4-2 when Wilfried Bony plays."
