Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger upset by decisions at Man Utd

The Gunners conceded a penalty when
Santi Cazorla handled an Ashley Young
cross and later had Jack Wilshere sent
off for two rash challenges.
Wenger said: "We always have a penalty
against us when we play Manchester
United so we get used to it."
He also felt Wilshere did not deserve to
be dismissed. "It looked harsh from the
stand, the second yellow," he said.
Wilshere's second yellow was for what
appeared to be a studs-first foul on
Patrice Evra, and followed an earlier
caution for a foul on Tom Cleverley.
He had been warned by referee Mike
Dean for another foul prior to his
second booking but Wenger decided
not to substitute him.
"I considered taking him off but we had
to go forward and attack. We were not
in a position where we could defend
and we didn't have a lot of midfield
offensive options on the bench.
"I think we were a bit unlucky, especially
with the penalty decision. We had the
better chances but overall in a game like
this you ought to not put yourself on
the back foot when you are one down."
Wenger insisted he felt no extra pain at
seeing former striker Robin van Persie
score in the opening minutes against
his former club.
He said: "It honestly doesn't bother me
at all that Robin scored. You just want
to win the game and you don't care
who scores. What is most important is
that you don't make mistakes at the
back and give chances away.
"I'm disappointed because we had a lot
of the ball but we were not very
efficient. It was a bit of an illusionary
domination. We gave an early goal away
and in a game like that it is a massive
advantage for a team.
"I think the start did not help us. It was
important not to put ourselves in
trouble, which is what we did. Then,
when we were 2-0 down and down to
10 men, it became difficult. If it was 11
against 11 then we could have come
back.
"We had a lot of the ball after we
conceded the first, but they created
more chances and deserved to win the
game," admitted Wenger, who will aim
to pick his side up for their Champions
League group match at Schalke 04 on
Tuesday.
