“What you want is that they have a go and they fight,” Wenger told Arsenal.com. “I think, traditionally in England, you have that. Hopefully that will be the case.
“Everybody will be under scrutiny so you just want the teams like Everton to fight against us, Middlesbrough will fight against Liverpool, Watford will fight against City."
