LONDON (Reuters) - Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger praised Danny Welbeck after the striker scored his first goals since injuring his knee last May to help his side hammer Southampton 5-0 in the FA Cup on Saturday. "Welbeck has been out for such a long time, I didn't expect him to score straight away and it shows the desire is there. Arsenal, who gave run-outs to young midfielders Jeff Reine-Adelaide and Ainsley Maitland-Niles, are in the last 16 of the Cup for the seventh consecutive year. Manager Claude Puel made 10 changes to his side and paid a heavy price with Arsenal having far too much strength in depth. It is not possible to play every three days with the same players and with some players with injuries.
