Arsenal boss Wenger warns Spurs: We're happier at Wembley

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger believes they could have an edge on Tottenham at Wembley on Saturday.

While it will be a home game for Spurs, Arsenal enjoy an impressive record at the stadium.

Wenger stated: "We have a positive history there and of course Wembley is a pitch that is quality, a stadium with a big crowd and it is always a special day in your mind so overall yes.

"It has a little weight in it because we have a good level of performance there, so we will not feel too much 'away' in that situation. Anyway, it will be down to the performance on the day.

"I just think that, for us, it will be more about sorting out the tactical problems. To be at the level of performance we want to be, we have to play our fluent football. What Wembley gives you is a good quality of pitch to allow you to play the kind of game we want to play."
