Arsenal need to come out firing - Wenger

Manager Arsene Wenger knows it would be crazy to believe Arsenal can simply blow away the best team in the world, but sees no reason why his side cannot match Bayern Munich in their Champions League showdown.

The German giants come to the Emirates Stadium on Tuesday night in imperious form, having just set a record for the best start to a domestic season with their ninth consecutive Bundesliga victory.

You can consider the teams who win the Champions League are the best in the world because most of the time they win after the World Cup of the clubs in recent years.

However, there is no team without weaknesses.

What we want to do tomorrow is win the game. We want to defend well, attack well, score the first goal, that is massively important in the big games.

You can never promise you will score three goals in 20 minutes because that would be absolutely crazy. What we can do is start in a strong way and that is what we will try to do.
