Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger treated the taunts of Stoke City fans with good humour after defeat yesterday.
Stoke fans love nothing more than taunting Wenger, but they were denied the chance to mimic the Arsenal manager's gestures on the touchline because he stayed seated in the dugout throughout the match.
That chant from the home supporters was that Wenger was "too scared to stand up", and the Gunners boss admitted, albeit with tongue in cheek, that there was a certain truth to that.
"There is one single reason," he said. "They love me so much. I didn't want to give them an opportunity to show me their love."
