Arsenal legend gives Wenger title winning transfer advice
“We had a game where nothing was really happening for us and everything was happening for them”, the goalkeeper told Arsenal‘s official website.

I think Southampton made the game very physical and we lost many challenges and that explains why we lost the game.
“I said before the game that being one point behind or in front is not too important, it’s the quality of our performance that counts and we were not good enough to win the game”, Wenger said.
“If you look at the number of shots they had – they had one in the first half and they scored a goal”.
“We were a bit unlucky because all the goals were debatable”.
“I said many times it’s down to consistency to fight in every game and find the resources to produce top-level performances”, he said.
But Wenger thinks Arsenal will make a prompt improvement when they return to action against Eddie Howe’s in-form Bournemouth, who are unbeaten in six league matches.
The other two goals were questionable as well – Shane Long appeared to trip Arsenal defender Laurent Koscielny in building up to his first goal on the night, and Fonte’s header came from a corner which was wrongly awarded by the linesman.
“I believe what I say to my players is between my players and myself”, he said after the 4-0 defeat at St Mary’s. Maybe we should just get used to the idea that Change.org is now a vehicle for irrationally angry football fans.
Southampton run riot with 4-0 win over “invisible” Arsenal Heading into the last game on Saturday, Arsenal had a golden opportunity to take the lead in the title race. We responded to the defeat at Chelsea with an away win over the Spuds and the thrashing of Leicester and after losing to West Brom we hit Dinamo Zagreb for three.
Arsenal have another chance to go top on Monday, with Leicester welcoming fellow title contenders Manchester City to the King Power a day later. It is hard to check that but I felt we were not physically at our best.

Arsenal had the first half-chance of the game as Nacho Monreal forced Maarten Stekelenburg into a low save after the ball fell to his weaker right foot 12 yards out, but Saints were ahead moments later.
