Wenger denies Arsenal bunch of soft lads

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger denies his team are a bunch of soft lads.

The Gunners have been dumped from three competitions in the last fortnight.

But a bristling Wenger said: "If I listened to everybody, it is a miracle we are playing for the title with 10 games to go. Nobody in England believed we could even fight for the top four.

"We have steel. I don't question that but it has been a difficult schedule. Wednesday against Leyton Orient, Saturday against Sunderland, Tuesday Barcelona then Manchester United.

"But the players have never shown any sign of mental weakness. They have put every effort in and can be proud of how much they fought at Old Trafford.

"I will let other people judge my performance. The only thing I can say is that I'm ready to give everything to win the title."
