Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger does not want his players to get ahead of themselves after a good start to the season.

The Gunners defeated Everton 6-1 on the opening day of the league and backed it up with a 2-0 away win over Celtic in the first leg of their Champions League qualifier.

The Frenchman now hopes his team can deliver in the second leg so Arsenal can qualify for Europe's premier club competition.

"We have a good advantage, but it is 180 minutes and we are in front after 90," he said.

"You want to play well for 180 and that is our purpose.

"We have to make sure we win the game at home, we have to take it serious and it is a massive game.

"We dominated the game but Celtic were always fighting and counter-attacking and in the end, despite being in control, we scored two lucky goals.

"But yes, of course, we merited the good fortune.

"I concede that we were lucky with the goals but we had plenty of opportunity in the first 15 minutes of the second half.

"We needed a very strong Arsenal side to win the game."
