Camp Nou miracle sees Braca in quarters

The first four teams advancing to the Champions League quarter-finals have been confirmed, and the remaining four round of 16-fixtures will be played next week on Tuesday and Wednesday. Arsenal`s Champions League campaign ended once again at this stage of the competition in a humiliating way, as they lost 10-2 on aggregate to their rivals from Germany Bayern Munchen. The second fixture between these clubs looked promising for The Gunners as Theo Walcott scored for the London club in the first half, raising hope for Wenger's squad towards the second half. Only ten minutes in the second half Arsenal`s captain, French center-back Laurent Koscielny tackles Robert Lewandowski in the penalty area and receives a red card. Lewandowski does not waste the opportunity and scores from the penalty shot, tying the game. With the one man advantage on the pitch, Bayern Munchen dominates the second half, scoring five goals behind Arsenals goalkeeper David Ospina. Winning both the first and second leg 5-1, Bayern Munchen proves that they are still one of the best clubs in Europe, and rightfully take the first spot in the top 8 of this year's Champions League. 

Is it time for Wenger at Arsenal?

When you think of Arsenal, you think of Arsene Wenger. The 67-year old frenchman has been the manager of Gunners for 20 seasons now, making it a club record. Sir Alex Ferguson still holds the record of  9704 days as a manager for Manchester united from 1986-2013, still 2000 days longer than Wenger's reign in Arsenal so far.

Before signing with Arsenal, Wenger had coached in the French Ligue-1 leading AS. Monaco to victory in the Coupe de France, and two seasons in Japan as manager for the J.league team Nagoya Grampus Eight. When Wenger first arrived in London 22 September 1996 he wasn´t well known to the English football world and many supporters and even players were asking "Arsene who?". Wenger's first major move after joining the club was to make dietary changes for the players such as forbidding them to drink beer on their days off, preferring white meat over red meat, and suggesting that pasta would be the new pre-match dish. Wenger was also given control over the clubs players contracts, training sessions and transfers for the club, unlike any of his predecessors.
