Arsene Wenger says that it "bothers" him that Arsenal have not won silverware since 2005 and is determined to end the trophy drought this season.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has said that it "bothers" him that his side have not won any silverware since 2005.

The Gunners' last trophy was the FA Cup and the Frenchman says that he wants to win it again this year.

"I think it is an important moment of the season for us, to strengthen the confidence of the team," Wenger told Arsenal's official website. "We feel we are on a good run but how far can we go? To win in the FA Cup will strengthen us.

"It bothers me [not to win trophies], of course it bothers me because I'm not here to watch other people win trophies.

"For us it's important to show continuity and consistency and the FA Cup is part of that. To get people to believe more in the team it's important that we win on Sunday."

Arsenal will take on Swansea City at the Liberty Stadium in the third round of the competition on Sunday.
