Arsenal legend Wright slams Andre Santos: I'm embarrassed for you

Arsenal legend Ian Wright has slammed Andre Santos for his behaviour at Manchester United on Saturday. Wright wrote in The Sun: "Santos is a poor left-back. It's been a long time since I have seen an Arsenal defender play this badly on a regular basis.

"He gets roasted by opponents, caught out of position and goes to ground too easily. But the shirt incident on Saturday was really annoying.

"I was lucky enough to swap shirts with Lothar Matthaus, Zinedine Zidane and George Weah - as you'd expect, the exchange was always made at the end of the game.

"Had I asked for the shirt of Eric Cantona at half-time at Old Trafford, the boys in our team would have ripped my head off in the changing rooms.

"But I would never have asked in the first place.

"Santos was disrespectful to the supporters, disrespectful to his team-mates and disrespectful to the Arsenal badge.

"I felt embarrassed for Santos."
