Champions League Disaster For Arsenal
Arsenal are all but out of the Champions League after a 4-0 defeat at the San Siro.
Arsene Wenger gave a frank appraisal of his team’s chances after a 4-0 defeat against AC Milan.
“We don’t live in a dream world. There is maybe a 2% or 5% chance statistically, but realistically we are out of this competition.” said the Frenchman.
The bookmakers agree. Arsenal are 50/1 to win the second leg 4-0 and 150/1 (both Sportingbet) to win 5-0, two of the few results that would give them a chance to progress.
Arsenal are a best price 400/1 (Sportingbet) to win the Champions League with AC Milan cut to 12/1 (Boylesports) from 25s. Barcelona head the betting at 7/5 with Paddy Power.
