“The advantage for Arsenal is the mental problem is easy. They have to go and play and win,” Wenger said. “The mental problem for PSG is: do we play to win this game or do we play to protect our advantage and get them playing on the counter-attack, knowing you have to be very clear in your message to the team.”

Former Arsenal boss, Arsène Wenger, has said the team has an “advantage” over Paris Saint-Germain ahead of their Champions League semi-final second leg on Wednesday. According to Wenger, the Gunners have no “mental problem” to contend with.

ARSENAL WARMED UP for Wednesday’s Champions League semi-final second leg at Paris St Germain with a shock 2-1 home defeat to Bournemouth. Declan Rice fired the Gunners ahead after 34 minutes but Andoni Iraola’s visitors staged a spirited second-half comeback at the Emirates.
