Arsenal's player Nicklas Bendtner Demand: Bendtner Arsenal's Nicklas Bendtner has pleaded with Arsene Wenger to restore him to his favoured position up front. Bendtner has been used in a wide role this season, with Dutchman Robin van Persie taking the central role in a front three. But the Denmark forward craves a return to his favoured striking spot. 'I am an attacker not a winger. I have always seen myself as a striker and it is my goal to play as a striker all the time," said Bendtner, who scored for Denmark in their 1-1 draw with Portugal in Copenhagen. 'It is important for me to play and when Arsene tells me to play in a position, I'll do that. 'Last season I played a lot from the left side and this season from the right side but, like I said, I prefer to play up front.'
