Manuel Almunia has rapped his Arsenal teammates for not leaving everything on the pitch at Barcelona. Almunia has accused his team-mates of walking rather than running in their Champions League defeat by Barcelona.
"Even at 3-1 we only needed one goal and you can't understand how there can be players that were walking," Almunia, who came on in the first half of the last-16 tie when Wojciech Szczesny dislocated his finger, told the Guardian. "With a bit more effort we could have caused them damage at the end.
"Barcelona bossed us and in the second half we had players that were not running. It seemed that everything was lost but you can score a goal at any moment.
"So the only explanation I have is that we were so tired and the players couldn't give any more. And being down to 10 men, well, it was double the effort."
