Stoke City boss Tony Pulis says there's nothing he can do to stake the sting out of their rivalry with Arsenal.

Stoke hosted the Gunners at the Britannia Stadium in the Barclays Premier League on Sunday in an edgy goalless draw with home fans jeering Arsenal players and manager Arsene Wenger.

"Irrespective of what I say or what Arsene says, you can't affect what people do," said the Potters boss.

"As I've said, if I can't affect it I don't worry about it and I personally don't think I can affect it.

"That's got to be other people doing that not me and that's got to be something that happens outside my sphere.

"You can say and I've said it before. That's gone. We've moved on."
