Arsenal boss Wenger pleased with Champions League draw

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is pleased with their Champions League draw.

The Gunners have been grouped with Paris Saint-Germain, Basel and Ludogorets.

"As we were in pot two, we got what we basically expected. Maybe Paris Saint-Germain is the favourite, but we want to qualify of course and if possible finish first in the group," said Wenger.

"We start in Paris, so that will be a very interesting test. At the moment, we don't know a lot about Ludogorets and Basel, if you look at their record against English teams you become cautious. They've done extremely well against Chelsea, against Manchester United, and I believe we have to be on our toes and prepare very well."
