Wenger: ‘We were technically average and naive in defence’

Wenger

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has admitted that his team were “technically average” and “gave away two goals” against Barcelona when they “could have won the game”.

The Frenchman was speaking after the 2-0 defeat in which Lionel Messi scored two second half goals to condemn Wenger’s men to a Champions League last-16 defeat, the first from a quick counter attacking move and the second from the penalty spot.

Wenger complemented Luis Enrique’s side on their quality but said he ‘regretted’ Arsenal’s naivety in defence, admitting that it reminded him of the European defeat to Monaco last season.
