Arsenal manager Arsene
Wenger is looking to finish as high as possible after beating
Manchester City 3-1 at Emirates Stadium.
The Gunners all but ensured UEFA Champions League football next
season with successive home wins over Bolton and then City.
Wenger felt his side deserved victory against Stuart Pearce's men
and pointed to Arsenal's eventual winner from Cesc Fabregas as the
key moment.
"It's important to finish as high as you can," Wenger told the
daily website.
"I think we deserved the win tonight, we had a lot of possession,
created a lot of chances and when Manchester City came back to 1-1,
it was a test in the second half but we kept our game, were patient
and scored.
"That changed it, because after that City changed their shape and
opened more up and of course we had many chances to score the third
goal.
"Before that they waited for us in the final third and we needed to
pass the ball quickly and find that second goal."
Arsenal will end the campaign without any silverware, but Wenger
expects his young team to be competing on all fronts next
season.
He added: "Yes because this team have already been in the Champions
League and I believe we changed the stadium, that's never easy at
the start, we dropped some points here."
