Wenger excited by Arsenal's English kids

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger believes he has a great bunch of English kids threatening to break through.

"Jack Wilshere scored a good goal (in the last round), and we know that people will be following his progress because there is a big expectation level here for English players to be produced," Wenger said.

"There is such big love for the national team that people want to see big players coming out from the top clubs and we are happy to do that.

"And it is not only Jack - we had a lot of good English players on the pitch (in the last round) such as Mark Randall, Gavin Hoyte and Kieran Gibbs.

"They have all done very, very well - recently I feel we've produced very good English players, and I think that quality-wise we are now more complete than ever."
