Wenger expects goals to flow

12 September 2010 14:00

Arsene Wenger is in no doubt there will be plenty more goals to come from his Arsenal team, which now boasts a more "stable" defensive footing.

The Gunners chalked up their 1,000th Premier League goal under Wenger during Saturday's 4-1 win over Bolton, who had defender Gary Cahill sent off just after the hour at Emirates Stadium.

"We know we can score goals and as a team we improve from season to season. We are more mature, and of course our challenge will be to be sound at the back," Wenger told BBC Sport.

"We have now played two difficult teams, at Blackburn and against Bolton, when defensively we were quite strong. "Everybody can score goals in our team, but I feel we are more stable defensively and are slowly getting there."

On a sour note, it remains to be seen just how much damage was suffered by midfielder Abou Diaby, who went off less than 15 minutes after coming on, following what looked a poor challenge from Paul Robinson.
