Wenger and Mkhitaryan look ahead to facing CSKA Moscow in UEL quarter-final first leg

SOUNDBITE (English) Arsene Wenger, Arsenal manager
(What would it feel like to win his first European trophy with Arsenal?)
"You know, we don't live in dreamland. We are in a quarter-final and we have to be very realistic and go step-by-step and give absolutely everything to go through in the quarter-final. Then we'll see."
SOUNDBITE (English) Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Arsenal midfielder
(On how Arsenal don't want to lose focus on their remaining league games)
"We're not going to think that we have to give all our strength and power only to the Europa League games. It's not like that. We still have seven games to go in the (English) Premier League and we have to win every game."
SOUNDBITE (English) Arsene Wenger, Arsenal manager
(On how he feels the game against CSKA will be 50/50)
"They are a strong side. They went to Lyon (in the last round) and they won. I watched the game they played in Lyon - they played extremely well. They created many chances and for me it's a 50/50."

SOUNDBITE (English) Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Arsenal midfielder
(On what it was like to play against CSKA in the Champions League group stage earlier this season when he was at Manchester United)
"We are going to face a very good team with very good experience. Everybody knows that their defensive line with the Berezutski brothers and (Sergei) Ignashevich - they are more than 35 years old I guess – and, of course, they can help them to play better and be more compact in defence."
