Villarreal vs Arsenal Preview
Whether because of the undoubted merits of his own side or Arsenal FC’s disappointing record in Spain, coach Manuel Pellegrini is convinced Villarreal CF are set to surge towards the UEFA Champions League semi-finals.
Previous meeting
The 55-year-old Chilean has the utmost respect for both Arsenal and his opposite number Arsène Wenger, with whom he bares more than a slight resemblance; but he is fired by the belief that justice was not done the last time the teams met. That came in the last four three seasons ago when the Gunners bucked a trend that had seen them lose six of their previous nine games in Spain to earn a goalless draw and complete a 1-0 aggregate triumph. The coaches may share an attacking, flair-based approach but Pellegrini begs to differ with those who suggest he and his side were outdone by Wenger and Arsenal in 2006.
