Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has admitted that he may need to bring in some more experienced players to bolster his Gunners squad in the summer.

The Frenchman was speaking after seeing his side knocked out the Champions League in the quarter-finals by holders Barcelona, with Wenger accepting that changes are needed.

He said: "We have to add something, for sure, but we have some time to think about that.

"We are at a stage where we're developing players.

"Theo Walcott is 22; Nicklas Bendtner is 22; Samir Nasri, Abou Diaby and Denilson are 22 or 23. They've shown some great qualities and they'll get stronger every year.

"We were very young and what we did was very positive. We had six or seven players under 23 in the team and we had plenty of opportunities.

"We showed we lacked maturity in the weight of the final ball."
