Arsenal boss Wenger non-plussed by Man Utd thumping of AC Milan
Submitted by tribalfootball.com on Fri, 03/12/2010 - 03:04
Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger shrugged off Manchester United's 4-0 thumping of AC Milan.
England striker Wayne Rooney continued his fine form with a brace as the Italians were swept aside, losing 7-2 on aggregate.
Wenger, however, feels United's first-leg victory in Milan had done the real damage.
"It was not a surprise," the Arsenal manager said.
"Last night's game was never in doubt after the first leg, which put Milan in a position where they had to chase, go on a big gamble in the second leg, and of course Manchester United punished them.
"The decider was in the first game. In the heads of Milan, it was already all over."

Arsene as we all kno admires Man Utd deep in his heart.....
The so-called journalist of the 21st century! Your heading is nonsense. Its like you want to create a gulf between man u and arsenal, however you have failed because quite rightly even a moron without a basic education will flatly castigate your headline. Its like your interest is on the bucks that you are eager to receive from your tabloid sales. Where is the code of ethics? I am thoroughly disappointed with your headline and you must be forced to realise that you are not special and indespensable and we are not going to jog along with your stupidity
It's sad that TribalFootball has the habit of setting fuel to fire.. They're just making fans angry at their rivals even more with their headlines.. The article shows that it was the total opposite -.-...
