Wenger: 'This means a lot for the squad'

On how much the win means to his players...

"Of course, the players were really up for it and focused. At the end we
needed to be patient. You have to give credit to Ipswich over the two games,
they defended with great attitude and great spirit and we needed tonight to
be mature, calm, patient and of course not concede a goal. The fact we have
stabilised our defensive record helped us to qualify.

"It meant a lot for the squad, for the team, and I must say they deserved to
be rewarded because they have an outstanding attitude and spirit. They are on
a natural development process and overall I think that in the last four games
we scored three goals in every single game and conceded one so we are
efficient on both sides. It was important to continue to believe, not to rush
our game and not become nervous. We did that very well."

On the desire his team showed...

"This team is hungry for success, I said that many times. You could see that.
We kept going, we refused to show any weakness and overall I think an average
team against Ipswich being 1-0 down would not have qualified."

On the improvement of Championship teams...

"We played Leeds and Ipswich and in fairness the Championship has improved a
lot in the last five, six years. Physically they do not weaken at all, they
keep going and when we analyse the physical performance of Ipswich they are
at the level of the Premier League, no problem."

On his half-time message...

"I told them to keep our priorities right, that is continue to defend well
and not expose ourselves too much by rushing our game. We needed to be calm,
patient, even if we had to go into the last 20 minutes. We had to continue to
believe in our game."

On putting the Carling Cup on ice for now...

"We want to go for all the competitions, I have said that for a long time.
That is one of the big targets. We have learned something from Leeds and
Ipswich, and that is you have to be 100 per cent focused because we play
Huddersfield on Sunday at the Emirates, so to be capable to focus on that
game will be vital for us."

On Nicklas Bendtner's performance...

"We rotate, I rotate from game to game because we play nine games in January
and we played eight or nine in December as well. I show them as well that I
have confidence in every player, no matter how big the game is. Of course
sometimes when a player has not played for a few weeks, when he comes in he
is not 100 per cent, but after a few games Bendtner is getting sharper and
sharper."

On Bendtner's goal...

"It was a great goal, yes, with a great ball from Wilshere as well. He had an
outstanding game tonight. I must say I enjoyed the corner as well because we
score so few goals from corners, for me it is fantastic."

On Koscielny's goal celebration...

"Maybe [it means] his girlfriend is pregnant? I don't know. Something like
that."

On being aware of Man Utd's win at Blackpool...

"Not really. I thought before the game that they would get three points
tonight. I have heard that at 2-0 Blackpool had a penalty turned down. But I
see from your smiles that you are not surprised. But for us it was a perfect
night. I am convinced that our season depends on our performances, on our
results and our consistency, so overall we do not have to focus on Man United
or anyone else. We are a team that has taken off a while ago and is
consistent now. It is important for us to go from strength to strength. If we
are capable of doing that we have a chance. Man United will be a very tough
opponent but we have a good chance if we continue going from strength to
strength."

On the importance of winning a trophy...

I don't know. You could see in Cesc's attitude that he's hungry for it and
overall I still believe that Cesc is a winner, a born winner who wants to win
every day on the training pitch. It has a lot of meaning for him."

On the transfer window...

"Transfer-wise there is no news and I would be surprised if there is any."

Wenger hasn't necessarily changed his mind on that but this season he is very
much 'in it to win it' and he believes that a Carling Cup triumph could be a
springboard to greater success.

"It is more difficult to get in the top four in the championship but I get so
often the same question in every press conference that we say 'OK, we try to
win everything we can'," he said.

"On the other hand it can get the pressure off the team to deliver in the
other competitions. It is not the only target of the season but it can help
us to achieve the other targets.

"I feel we have the opportunity now we are in the Final to win one. What I am
convinced about is that we will go with the same heart for everything, then
we will see.

"I believe we have a chance to deliver but now we are in the Final we need to
deliver the needed performance on the day. That is part of mental strength as
well."

溫格：進入決賽不等於捧杯 英冠球隊教會我們專注

阿森納中文官方網站 2011-01-26 10:49

　　英國當地時間1月25日19：45，阿森納在聯賽杯半決賽第二回合比賽中3比0擊敗伊普
斯維奇，總比分3比1晉級決賽。

　　這場勝利對你的球員意味著什麼···

　　當然了，球員們真的非常盡力和專注。到比賽最後時刻，我們需要保持耐心。你必須
稱讚伊普斯維奇這兩場比賽的表現，他們用非常出色的態度和鬥志在防守，我們今晚需要
成熟、鎮定、耐心，當然，還不能失球。事實上，我們更加穩固的後防表現幫助球隊晉級
。

　　這對球隊意味著很多，我必須說他們理應被嘉獎，因為他們擁有出色的態度和鬥志，
他們處在正常的發展軌跡之中。總的來講，我認為最近四場比賽我們都能攻入三球，只丟
一球，所以我們在攻防兩端都很有效率。繼續保持信念很重要，不要倉促，也不要慌張。
這次，我們做得非常出色。

　　球隊展現出的求勝渴望···

　　球隊渴望勝利，我說過許多次了，你也可以看出來。我們保持這種態勢，我們拒絕呈
現出任何缺點。總的來講，我認為在0比1落後伊普斯維奇的局面下，一支正常發揮的球隊
是不會晉級的。

　　英冠球隊的進步···

　　我們踢了利茲聯和伊普斯維奇。老實說，英冠球隊最近5、6年進步了許多。從身體來
看，他們根本就沒有劣勢，一直在進步。讓我們分析一下，伊普斯維奇這樣的身體對抗就
是英超級別，沒有問題。

　　你在半場傳遞的信息···

　　我告訴他們繼續保持優勢局面，那就是做好防守，不要太倉促進攻給後防暴露太多空
當。我們需要鎮定、保持耐心，即便進入最後20分鐘也要這樣。我們必須在比賽中一直相
信自己。

　　暫時忘記聯賽杯···

　　我們希望征戰所有的賽事，我很長時間以來都這麼說，這是我們最大的一個目標。我
們在與利茲和伊普斯維奇的比賽中學到了很多，那就是你必須100%專注於比賽，因為我們
週日就要在酋長迎戰哈德斯菲爾德，所以專注於比賽對我們至關重要。

　　尼克拉斯·本特納的表現···

　　我們要輪換，每場都如此，因為我們在1月要踢9場比賽，我們12月同樣踢了8、9場。
我向球隊展示了我對每一名球員都有信心，不管這是什麼比賽。當然了，當一名球員好幾
週都沒有比賽的時候，他肯定不在100%狀態，但經過了一些比賽之後，本特納變得越來越
犀利。

本特納的進球···

　　那是一記偉大的進球，我必須這麼說，威爾希爾的傳球也非常漂亮。他踢了一場精彩
的比賽，我必須說我也很享受那個角球破門，因為我們這樣進的球是如此之少，對我來講
這球很美妙。

　　薩尼亞的傷勢···

　　薩尼亞有點腦震盪，他必須去醫院，賽後他的身體狀況不佳，鼻子有疼痛。但最讓人
擔心的還是腦震盪，但願我們明天能得到好消息。

　　科斯謝爾尼的進球慶祝動作···

　　是否說明他的女朋友懷孕了？我不知道，差不多這樣吧。

　　把聯賽杯作為「跳板」···

　　我感覺我們現在機會來了，我們已經進入了決賽。我堅信的是我們對待所有賽事的決
心都一樣，我們到時看吧。我相信我們有機會問鼎冠軍，但是我們只是進入了決賽而已，
我們需要在比賽那天發揮出所需的表現才行。同樣，這也是精神力量的一部分。

　　在意曼聯在布萊克浦的勝利嗎？

　　不全是。我在賽前就覺得他們會全取3分，我聽說布萊克浦2比0領先之後還有一個點
球沒判，但我從你的笑容中看出來你不吃驚。不過對我們來講，這是一個美妙的夜晚，我
堅信我們這個賽季取決於自身表現、自身比賽結果和持續力。所以總的來講，我們沒必要
專注於曼聯或者其他隊。我們是一支已經上路很久的球隊，我們有持久力。曼聯將是一個
非常難對付的挑戰者，但我們有不錯的機會，只要我們每場都能變得更強大。

　　奪得一座獎盃的重要性···

　　我不知道。你可以看出塞斯克的態度，他對此非常渴望。總的來講，我仍然相信塞斯
克是一個贏家、天生的勝利者，他每天在訓練場都希望獲勝。冠軍對他意味著很多。

　　聯賽杯的地位···

　　進入聯賽前四的難度更大，但我每次發佈會都要被問很多次這個問題，我們說「沒問
題，我們努力贏下一切。」另一方面，（奪冠）可以減輕球隊征戰其他賽事的壓力。聯賽
杯不是這個賽季的唯一目標，但它能幫助我們實現其他。

　　轉會窗口···

　　目前沒有消息，如果有的話我才是會吃驚。
