The Gunners were
unable to find a way past Championship side Hull in the FA Cup on Saturday despite
enjoying the vast majority of possession as they played out a goalless draw at
the Emirates.
Arsenal have now failed to score in four of
their last seven games, and Wenger admits they must improve their attacking
quality as they prepare to host Barca in the Champions League on
Tuesday night.
“We need to be much more efficient [against
Barcelona] because one thing is for sure - we will not have 75 per cent
possession [against Barcelona]," said the Frenchman.
“We need to be much more efficient when we have
the ball.”
Asked if his side are lacking a killer instinct,
Wenger said: “Yes, because when you look back at the games we have played
recently, nil-nil at stoke, nil-nil against Southampton,
nil-nil today.
“With the quantity of the ball we have, we must
score more goals. That is for sure.
“We had a lot of the ball [against Hull], we had
many shots, they defended well and overall we lacked a little bit. Sometimes
with the final ball we wanted to make too much of a decision alone and lacked
quality with the final ball. On top of that their goalkeeper had a great game.”
