Arsene Wenger aiming high with Arsenal after signing new two-year deal

Arsene Wenger insists there are no limits to Arsenal's ambitions after he signed a new two-year deal to continue as manager of the Gunners.

The 67-year-old had been widely expected to extend a reign already lasting more than 20 years and confirmation came from the club on Wednesday afternoon - with chief executive Ivan Gazidis and majority owner Stan Kroenke calling for Premier League success.

Wenger had come in for fierce criticism from pundits, supporters and former players during the second half of last season as Arsenal slipped out of the Premier League top four and were thrashed 10-2 on aggregate by Bayern Munich in the Champions League.
