Arsene Wenger: Now you could see Arshavin is himself again

Andrey Arshavin scored the winning goal for Arsenal in the English Premier League match against Swansea (1:0). In the 40th minute the Russian player took advantage of the goalkeeper’s mistake and scored into the empty net. It’s worth noting that the Russian midfielder hasn’t scored at the Emirates since the Champions League match against Barcelona (3:1) in February.

Arsenal head coach Arsene Wenger pointed out how important the victory in this match was, saying Arshavin finally gained his confidence.

«It was vital for us to win the game. We started well and, slowly, the nerves took over. We just wanted to get over the line.»

«Arshavin had lost confidence but he has a good attitude in training. Now you could see that he is himself again», said Wenger as quoted by the club’s official Twitter.
