Arsenal keeper Szczesny: We must face Fenerbahce without fear

Arsenal goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny admits they face a big test at Fenerbahce tonight in their Champions League qualifier.

Szczesny says Arsène Wenger's side enough quality to respond positively after defeat to Aston Villa.

"It is not an easy draw - it is never easy to go to Turkey in front of a very enthusiastic crowd," he told Arsenal Player.

"It will be very tough but we are a confident team and if you want to play in the Champions league we should be going to Fenerbahce and getting a win.

"I wouldn't say the atmosphere affects the players but you enjoy it that bit more when the crowd is buzzing and it is so intense. I love it. You try a little bit harder when the fans are on top of you."
