Pep Guardiola makes shock announcement after Bayern Munich’s thrashing of Arsenal

Olivier Giroud pulled a goal back with a volley but Muller ensured Bayern signed off in style by adding a fifth late on – his 16th of the season.

It must defeat both Dinamo Zagreb and Olympiakos to have any hope of progressing and it will also need Bayern to defeat the Greek side.

“It’s tough to take but in a way you have to accept that the team you were playing against was superior to us today in everything they did, especially in the first half”. Our aim was to control the game in the second half, but we let them get at us too often on the break. Defensively we were just not present, we were not there.

The Arsenal keeper twice denied Muller a second goal, but was unable to keep out David Alaba’s effort on the stroke of half time, as the Austrian curled a shot beyond Cech from outside the penalty area.

“This was not the result we wanted but the situation in our group doesn’t change in that we still have to win in Greece”. All of the Bayern Munich goals would have been extremely hard to save and were no fault of Cech.

Wenger balked when asked if that was the worst defensive display he has witnessed since taking over as Arsenal coach in 1996.
