Wembley Pitch Ready Says Stadium Manager

Arsene Wenger and Alex McLeish managers of the Carling Cup Final had demanded that the playing condition of the Wembley Stadium should be perfect for a game of top class football to held on Sunday.

Some problems happened at the last year final match with the state of the itch not making Sir Alex Fergsson very happy and he blamed the surface for Michael Owen`s hamstring injury.

Assurance of perfect pitched has been made by Wembley Stadium managing director Roger Maslin.

"For Arsenal who have a Desso surface they will recognise the quality of surface, the lack of divots and the speed of play. It`s in fantastic condition," Maslin said.

"It`s fundamental to our business plan to have the best possible playing surface, but at the same time it accords with our business plan as a multi-use venue.

"I won`t lose any sleep worrying about how the pitch will play now the changes have been made."
