Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has promised that they will take the game to AC Milan in their Champions League last-16 tie at the San Siro on Wednesday.

Reports had suggested that Wenger may adopt a defensive approach to avoid a first-leg defeat to the Italian giants, but the French tactician insists that his side will play their natural attacking game.

"If I would think we have no chance to win the game I would stay at home. I don't like to waste my time," he said.

"We have shown we can win everywhere and I have full confidence in this team that we can do it. We will try to play our game. Milan are a good side. We think we are a good side.

"We will attack, they certainly will as well. So it should be a good game."

Arsenal beat the Italian champions 2-0 at the San Siro in the 2008 competition.
