Six appeal can give Arteta forward thrust he needs to mount a serious challenge

AFTER dismantling Lens in the Champions League on Wednesday night, the challenge for Arsenal is to bring their attacking flair to the home front.

It has not been easy in the Premier League this season, as teams have starved Arsenal of the space their attackers need to thrive.

In Europe, however, it has been a different story, the Gunners relishing the open nature of games. But there is no way Wolves will arrive at Emirates Stadium tomorrow with the same game plan.

"European football is a bit different, maybe a bit more transitions, a bit more open," said Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard. "Of course, we want to take that into the League. We want to keep playing well, keep scoring goals and [playing] good offensive football.

We have to defend well and then play good when we have the ball."
