Leicester City forward Jamie Vardy has been named the Player of the Month for October...

"It is always good because it just reminds you that - especially after a defeat like we had on Wednesday night [5-1 Champions League defeat to Bayern Munich] - we have not done too badly in the last month," Wenger said. 

"You worry as well about maintaining the run for coming months. That is what we want to do always."

When asked about that emphatic victory over United, Wenger added: "That was the highlight because there are very few matches in your life where it all clicks perfectly in the first 20 minutes and that is one of the games.
