Arsene Wenger believes that Hull City have assembled a team that has the quality to “beat anybody” in the Premier League.
Steve Bruce’s side had a strong summer in the transfer market, adding the likes of Hatem Ben Arfa, Abel Hernandez and Mo Diame to their squad.
"Look at the quality of players they got in, you can say they bought top quality"

Wenger is anticipating a major battle with last season’s FA Cup final opponents and says his team will have to be at their best to secure the three points.
“The Hull game for us is a a remembrance of a big sweat because we played against them in the cup final in a very difficult game,” the Arsenal manager said.
“They could not use Jelavic in the cup last season, and since then they have bought Diame, Hernandez - they have bought some good players.
“When you look at their team sheet now, they look like they can beat anybody so I expect a tough game. Look at the quality of players they got in, you can say they bought top quality.”
