Arsene Wenger has been the hottest topic to talk about these days for his retirement and form Arsenal has been showing in past few weeks. While at once his side they is surely struggling to deliver their best on domestic front, on European front it is going tougher for them to earn some respect and perform better against big sides in Europe. Their next high profile game is against Bayern Munich on Tuesday and Frenchman knows how tough it is going to be hence he wants to play with "lucid rage" though also admits his team only has "a one or two-percent chance" to advance. However, if you remember at their last meeting where English side was devastatingly crushed by their German opponents with a 5-1 deficit at the Emirates after their second-half collapse in Munich last month in the first leg of their round-of-16 tie.
