Wenger: Arsenal's future is looking bright

Wenger also played down any talk of him leaving the Gunners before his current contract ends next year and said he felt as committed to Arsenal as he has done since arriving in the red half of North London in 1996.

Arsenal are in a fight with their arch-rivals Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea for the two remaining Champions League places for next season as they seek to compete in the elite European competition for a 16th successive season.

Talking to reporters at the club's London Colney training base in Hertfordshire, Wenger said: "We have gone through a period that was very sensitive, we are coming out of it now and everything is here to have a great future.

"We have a good fan base, we now have a strong financial situation, we have good young players and a squad with a bright future with the quality of the young players we have.

"It is just to manage it well now."

"I have answered that question already. I respect my contracts," he said.

"I believe a big club should be run where everybody does his job and I try to do my job. The only thing I can say is that I do it with a lot of commitment and a lot of loyalty. I try to do as well as a I can for this club.

"I want to stay if I do well and if I consider or the club considers that I do well, that is all."

Of more immediate concern is this weekend's match at QPR and taking three points to keep up their top four challenge.

"The only thing we know is it can only be decisive if we win our games. That is compulsory. We focus on winning our games and then look at the results of other teams."
