ARSENAL COACH ARSENE Wenger believes AC Milan have no realistic chance of lifting the Champions League trophy this season.
The Serie A champions reached the quarter-finals of the continental competition after a 4-3 aggregate victory over Arsenal, despite suffering a 3-0 defeat in the return leg at the Emirates.
Ahead of Milan’s quarter-final first-leg tie against Barcelona on Wednesday, Wenger said Massimiliano Allegri’s team have too many flaws to win the Champions League.
“I know Milan very well: they play very well as far as collective work is concerned, but I do not think they are up to the task of winning the trophy,” Wenger wrote in his Eurosport column.
“They have some weak points, although they have a player with the quality of Zlatan Ibrahimovic. Robinho can also be very dangerous in attack, but ‘Ibra’ can score a lot of goals on a good day.
“Milan know what to do to win at San Siro: I hope the condition of their pitch has improved because against us it was a disaster.
“Everyone looks at Milan with respect, but I think they have no chance of winning the Champions League.”
