Colombian international David Ospina kept his place after the FA Cup win over Hull City last weekend – and he kept a second successive clean sheet, with Wenger insisting that the former Nice man deserve another shot:
“He [Ospina] deserved to play again. A good opportunity as well. Szczesny has played many games and to have a look at Ospina as well. Not discipline, no. You look only at form and performance and sometimes fatigue as well. Sometimes they [goalkeepers] need a breather as well.”
