We will not underestimate Alkmaar - Fabregas


Captain Francesc Fabregas has said that his side will not be underestimating the threat posed by Dutch side Az Alkmaar ahead of Tuesday's Champions League match.

The Gunners currently have a 100 per cent record in the competition, and will want to extend that on Tuesday.

Arsenal travel to the Netherlands hoping to clinch progression to the next round of the Champions League, but Fabregas says that despite his team's good form, there will be no letting off the gas in the match.

Fabregas said: "We have six points from two games in the group and if you think about the position we were in after just four minutes of our opening game, it shows how quickly football changes.

"You must stay focused every day to be the best, because everyone else out there wants to be the best too.

"People expect the so-called smaller teams to be easy, but especially away from home those games are tough.

"They are usually fresher than the English or the Spanish teams because maybe their own league is not as intense."
