Arsenal boss Wenger: I was not having pop at Chamakh

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger denies he was reacting towards Marouane Chamakh after he missed a late header last night.

Chamakh had the chance to cancel out Manchester City's 1-0 lead in the Carling Cup, but failed to connect with a late cross.

"He wasn't far away from the ball. I did not react at Chamakh, it was more frustration that we did not score and come back. I felt as well that Squillaci was behind him - if someone else goes in behind him it was a tap-in at the far post," Wenger told arsenal.com.
