Wenger: 'The game should have been over before it started'

"The game should have been over before it started. We had two chances in the first minute, one very easy. We had chance after chance and never put the ball in the back of the net."

"I believe he should have at least hit the target.

"It's disappointing because it was a good collective team performance and I believe sometimes we rushed our game in the final third, especially in the first half when we wanted to take some difficult shots."

"The team fought outstandingly well and showed some great qualities. We have to take the positives from that massive disappointment.

"We care about winning our games but you have to take a little bit of distance with the result as well. I believe we showed outstanding quality and we have to keep battling and fighting and get our influential players back. We have an outstanding team.

"Having watched the game as objectively as I can, I believe we can have big regrets for having lost it."
