Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has expressed his delight with his side's 4-1 home win against Reading in the Premier League on Saturday.

The Frenchman was also pleased with the performance of Gervinho, who scored the opening goal for the Gunners after 10 minutes.

"We played with good collective spirit, technical quality and always went forward," BBC Sport quotes him as saying.

"We created many chances, that's the most pleasant thing. We defended well, had good discipline and didn't become easy when the game became easy. We kept focus, it was a good performance.

"[Gervinho] was always lively and created many dangerous situations. I'm sorry because in the game he had an assist, he scored but he had more chances. He lacked a bit of confidence in front of goal."

Arsenal are now fifth in the table with 53 points from 30 matches.
