Arsenal skipper Van Persie: No conflict with Wenger or club

Arsenal captain Robin van Persie insists there's no rift with manager Arsene Wenger. Van Persie was seen on camera disagreeing with Wenger's decision to substitute Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain during defeat to Manchester United.

But he insists that was not a sign of dissent aimed at his manager and admits he had not realised the player was carrying an injury.

"The manager and I are fine and my relationship with the club is good," says Van Persie in The Sun.

"There is no problem, there is no conflict, there is no controversy."
