ARSENAL manager Arsene Wenger branded his side?s 0-4 defeat by AC Milan its worst ever performance in Europe.
?We were never in the game, we were very poor offensively and defensively, and it was shocking to see how we were beaten everywhere,? he told reporters.
?It was our worst performance in Europe by far, there was not one moment we were really in the game. We had to chase the game, open up our game. It was always the same for us, balls over the top, it?s difficult to analyze. It?s better not to talk too much and to analyze with a cool head,? Wenger added. ?We will focus on our next games and although the result is a disaster, the season is not finished.?
He acknowledged there was almost no hope of reversing the scoreline in the second leg.
?We did not have many other choices, we were weak in some departments, and I knew we could have some problems in some areas but I did not feel we would not score a goal tonight,? the Frenchman said. ?Let?s be realistic, we don?t play in dream world, maybe there is a two percent or five percent chance statistically, realistically we are out of this competition.?
