Arsene Wenger: 'We should have won against Chelsea'

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has said that his side should have beaten Chelsea in the Premier League this evening, with the Gunners having to settle for a 0-0 draw at the Emirates.

The hosts had a number of good chances to win the game, as Bacary Sagna had a header cleared off the line in the final minutes of the match.

"We should have won it. They came here to defend and catch us on the break. We were a bit edgy at the start but we took control in the second half and should have won it," Wenger told reporters after the game.

"It was a game of very few chances and we couldn't take ours. If you cannot win the game don't lose it. It was 100% a penalty when Theo Walcott was fouled, in my mind there is no doubt. I don't know why it was not given.

"I made no changes as we had a good balance and I felt that we had enough strength to see it through."

Arsenal are sitting in second place in the Premier League table on 36 points.
