KOEMAN GUNNING FOR ARSENAL

Ronald Koeman is in no doubt all the pressure will be on Arsenal in Wednesday night's Champions League clash at the Emirates Stadium - and warned his PSV side are more than capable of "giving them a surprise".

The Dutch side hold a 1-0 advantage from the first leg a fortnight ago, meaning Arsenal will have to win by two clear goals to ensure their progress into the quarter-finals.

With last season's Champions League runners-up having little but pride left to play for domestically, Europe is now their only hope of silverware.

Koeman - who lifted the European Cup with Barcelona at Wembley in 1992 - has every intention of ending those aspirations.

"Even with our own problems, we are still capable of giving them a surprise. It is in the character of our players," he said.

"It is about defending well, about having good organisation."

Koeman warned: "If we score, then it will be very difficult for them.

"But Arsenal are a team which plays fast football and that is how they create their chances - so they could score three because they have that quality.

"However, when you lose 1-0 (in the first leg), then you always have the thought in your mind that you can also get a goal against you - then you would have to score three.

"You can play a great game, but with a few seconds left you can let in a goal and then you say goodbye to the Champions League."

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger was less than impressed by what he saw as somewhat negative tactics in the first leg.

Koeman said: "We are not going to open up and let Arsenal have it all their own way, because then you are not going to win.
