Wenger admits Arsenal buzzing going into Chelsea showdown

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger admits the club is buzzing after an impressive start to the season.

Wenger's team welcome Chelsea to Emirates Stadium next weekend and the Frenchman is delighted with what he's seen against some tough opponents.

"The feelgood factor is there, especially about the quality of our display and the attitude of the team," Wenger told Arsenal Player.

"That [draw on Sunday] should strengthen even more our resolve to do well in the league, we have a big part to play.

"Overall, there is some frustration with Sunday's match because we didn't take the chances and we have a great need to take our chances in the big games. Also, the goal we gave away was quite soft. But I must say the global impression is still very positive.

"We've been to three difficult places - Stoke, Liverpool and Man City - and we've come away from it unbeaten with convincing performances. Overall that is a very positive impression."
