Arsène Wenger has urged his players “not to forget” their qualities as they head into the Europa League tie that represents their last chance to salvage a stricken season. We need to have positive advice in our heads because the brain dictates to the body and the legs. We have to not forget we have good players. A crowd of around 70,000 is expected, roughly 50,000 more than has attended most of Milan’s Europa League matches this season. Arsenal travelled without their most accomplished full‑backs Héctor Bellerín and Nacho Monreal, and with Danny Welbeck again the only available experienced striker.
