Wenger ready to learn from Liverpool’s mistakes at Swansea

Arsene Wenger has said he is ready to heed the warning Swansea set against Liverpool when they travel to the Liberty Stadium on Tuesday night.

The Swans, who are bottom of the Premier League table on goal difference, pulled of a shock victory over high flying Liverpool on Monday night – a first half Alfie Mawson goal proving the difference between the two sides.


After the upset, Arsene Wenger says his side must learn from Liverpool’s mistakes in order to avoid defeat against Carlos Carvalhal’s side.

“When you don’t win you are criticised, and I think Liverpool tried. What is a good warning for us is that Liverpool are an attacking team.” said Wenger.
“You cannot criticise them for not attacking, they are very dangerous going forward and they didn’t manage to score against Swansea.
“That is a good warning for us that we have to produce absolute total offensive performance.”
Regardless of the Liverpool result, Wenger says he is prepared for a tough trip to Swansea regardless, after admitting travelling to club’s in-and-around the relegation zone is always tough, especially around this time of year.
“It makes it more difficult and I agree completely with you. When you anticipate the league you think as well that you have to make your ground up before April because in April you have a few teams.” he continued.
“What we noticed last year is that some of the teams who battled to be safe, once they were safe they lost many games and so it was more difficult to make ground up after April because some teams, once they’re safe, they gave up and were a bit less focused and lost easy games.”
