Wenger: 'When you don't have the right focus you pay for it'

Last updated : 02 December 2008 By Chris Parry

"We had six one-on-ones with the goalkeeper and didn't score, and we were a bit fragile at the back as well.

"Overall we had plenty of chances but if you don't score your one-on-ones, you have to question your right to qualify.

"Tonight you have to praise their keeper and question the strikers."

"We had the potential to go through and we lost tonight against the least difficult team of the three we played.

"That is what young players learn. In football it is efficiency and focus from the first minute on and when you don't have the right focus you pay for it.

"They have a lot to learn many of them. The potential is there, and even tonight away from home they didn't hide, they tried to play and we had plenty of chances."
