Arsene Wenger pleased by "disciplined" Arsenal victory

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger believes that an all-round performance from his team was at the heart of their 2-0 win over Manchester City.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has praised his team for putting in an all-round performance during Sunday's win at Manchester City.

The Gunners secured a 2-0 victory at the Etihad Stadium to boost their chances of securing a top-four finish.

Santi Cazorla gave the visitors a half-time lead from the penalty spot before Olivier Giroud sealed the points after the break.

"I felt that we were well-disciplined, well-organised, had a good solidarity and overall we kept a good control of the game," Wenger is quoted as saying by BBC Sport.

"It's down to everybody doing their job. The first goal dictates the way of the game in these big games - today we scored first.

"We looked in control away from home and we finally got a big win in a big game away from home. What is pleasing is that reinforces the belief of the team. To feel that you can do well is very important."

Arsenal are back up to fifth place in the table, one point adrift of Manchester United in fourth position.
